Selma Blair's Quotes

• [on husband Ahmet Zappa's noteworthy proposal] I said, "I need something to make sure that this is real", a Ferrari or something, and so he gave me a highlighter pen. It was a yellow highlighter pen . . . He told me that his father, Frank Zappa, had asked his mother to marry him with a pen.
• [on performing in Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)] I loved being surrounded by monsters and I guess it goes back to my childhood. I loved fairy tales--Aesop's Fables, Grimm's Fairy Tales. I was a big fan of Little Matchstick Girl.
• I used to wear a lot of red lipstick, and when I got a pimple, I'd cover it up with eyeliner to turn it into a beauty mark.
• I'm one of those hovering mothers and I know it's really important to have an independent child, so I'm trying to back off, but it's hard. I love him so much, and he's so funny and cute to me.
• I will do almost anything for the sake of a joke or for the sake of someone's real belief in something to help tell a story. I will not do something shocking for the sake of being nasty. If it's not hurting anyone's feelings, I'm in on the joke.
