You’ve been in a lot of projects with intense fan followings—Buffy the Vampire Slayer, X-Men: The Last Stand, Heroes. Have you ever run into crazy stalker types?
Whenever you have something with a hard-core following, the fans always have a lot to say—both good and bad. And they always make for an interesting encounter. I’m a passionate person myself, so I’m always ready to engage in a passionate conversation with someone.

As A.J.’s hotheaded girlfriend On The Sopranos, you managed to get him into some trouble. Can you drive a man to do dangerous things?
I’ve definitely driven men to do things out of the ordinary for me, but I don’t encourage it, because I can handle things myself. I have such a strong personality, I think a man who’s with me feels under pressure to step up to the plate.
