Roberts believes that actors should not ask other actors for advice. she says: “When people say, ‘What advice would you give to an actor?,’ I would say the first thing I would say to any actor is don’t take advice from actors. It would be the worst thing to do because we all have our unique experiences.”
Roberts argues that not every “failed” audition for an actor is a failure. She uses the example of “opportunities” she missed which may have negatively affected her career. She recalls, “I’m so deeply thankful for all the jobs that I didn’t get because I auditioned for a lot of really terrible commercials and not quality television. And so, I think it was a lot of good fortune that no one wanted me. I look back on it with real good feelings now.”
She also claims that she doesn’t maintain her character during filming but enjoys seeing others do it. She says, “No way. Are you kidding? It is too much. You have to put the bag down… I mean, I admire people that do that. It looks exhausting to me and I secretly think: ‘Oh, I wish I could do that. I wish I could be that intense.’ I’m just kidding.”
