Question: Except your Roswell
is about ten times bigger than the real one... Katherine: (laughs) Yeah. I think
so, too.
Question: What do you like to do for fun?
Katherine: Im a really cheap date. I like to sit on the couch and watch
movies I love. I love to eat dinner in and I love to eat a great dinner out. I love a
great conversation. I keep things pretty low-key. I dont do a lot. I dont do a
lot of the Hollywood parties because its usually a lot more effort than its
worth. A lot of dressing up for about fifteen minutes of fun. I like to stay in. I like to
read, I like to write. I knit. Most of my days are spent exhausting myself with the hours.
Question: Have you ever had a date from hell like in the opening of Valentine?
Katherine: Not that bad, but Ive had close. I think the worst kinds of
dates are the guys who think that theyre so great that you should feel really lucky
that youre with them. And then you just really want to go home and I just long for a
couch and my dog and a bowl of popcorn with a good movie. Im fine alone. I
dont need to be with some guy I want to punch.
Question: Your character in Valentine was really confrontational with that guy
would you ever do that in real life?
Katherine: Im not as confrontational as that. Im not as kick-ass as
Shelly was. She really was like, "Enough of your crap, youre a jerk!"
Im generally a lot more, "Um...uh-huh...well...thank
you...uh...yeah...Ive got a headache...yeah...thanks anyway," you know, I
generally try to be...but I think she had the right attitude. I think I have the wrong
attitude. Somebody shouldnt be allowed to get away with that crap.
