Amanda Peet

Sex worker.

Yes, I think I was constantly trying to make it appear less frivolous.

Right.

But interestingly, apropos of what we were just saying, I think because I had terrible stage fright, it was much easier for me to book things like a Chapstick commercial or Days of Our Lives.

Like as soon as I was lucky enough to get an audition for something like a Clifford Odette's play or something like that, I was like this.

And I couldn't do what I was doing in class anymore.

you know, in real life.

I didn't explain that right.

So...

Anything highbrow, I was like terrified.

And then anything that was like considered more lowbrow, I could kill it.

And so then I was undoing what I wanted to portray to my parents.

Because I'd be like, well, I'm on a Skittles commercial.

And they'd be like, I rest my case.

Well, yeah, I mean, not to get too like deep about it, but both my kids were, you know, given offers to go play.

Oh, sorry, the two that are home and play soccer.

At different times in their soccer careers, we're offered to play in a higher soccer team, and we're like, no.

Because they were too nervous.

So I gave them my fucking anxiety.

Yes, I feel like.
