I pushed myself way too hard during the first year of Veronica Mars and I got moody and run-down. Now I'll go to bed early instead of going out with friends.

I'm not in the business of becoming famous. And that's the advice I give to younger aspiring actors. Work onstage and do the little roles. In the end it's not important to be seen. It's important to do. There's a lot of disappointment in this business, but my family keeps me grounded. Kristen Bell actoradviceaspire share on social
I have always been an animal lover. I had a hard time disassociating the animals I cuddled with - dogs and cats, for example - from the animals on my plate, and I never really cared for the taste of meat. I always loved my Brussels sprouts. Kristen Bell animalbrusselscare share on social

I'm more of a homebody. I'm constantly asked: 'Why don't we see you out?' But that's not what drives me. I prefer to have people over - which I do a lot, because I bought a house that's way too big for me, and four of my friends live there. Kristen Bell askbigbuy share on social
I'm a geek who loves fashion. There's been a reinvention of the word geek. It means being passionate about anything that's under the radar or sort of frowned upon, like Comic-Con. Kristen Bell comicconfashion Change image and share on social
I'm empathetic to a fault. I really do - embarrassingly enough - tear up when someone squishes a bug in front of me. Kristen Bell bugembarrassinglyempathetic Change image and share on social
When I see something unjust, I have to intervene - it's hard for me to watch the underdog suffer. Kristen Bell hardintervenesuffer Change image and share on social
