Pauley Perrette

Pauley Perrette: I was a criminal science fanatic and went to study it in college as well and I think that helped me on NCIS because I was comfortable with the language, I had studied criminal science in school for years.

I was a bartender in New York and I overheard this girl saying she made $3000 doing a commercial. A kid at work told me, 'Hey, I know this director and he'd really like you!'. So I walked into this guy's office and was like 'I was thinking maybe I could make $3000' and he hired me for commercials, short films, like 15 jobs in a row.

My whole goal was to be able to work in television and film and maintain a normal life, never be in a tabloid.

In many ways, acting is really like a science to me to figure out the human behavior of any character that I'm playing.

My absolute favorite movie of all time is Pink Floyd's 'The Wall.' Nothing compares to it. I have seen it thousands of times and still watch it every few weeks.

The Internet is a strange, strange place that is full of lies. I would say mostly lies.
