Quotes by Missy Peregrym
I wanted to go on the red carpet with a baseball cap, t-shirt, and jeans. And I still do. Because that's really who I am.
I don't think anybody planned for me to be an actor. I didn't. I didn't know this was what I was going to do.
The people that matter to me the most are the people that are in my life. That's who I really learn from, and it's always a very personal kind of connection.
You won't ever see me being totally sexy on 'Rookie Blue.' It's not right for the character, anyway.
In general, I try to eat food without added hormones and pesticides, but I'm not so strict that I won't have a Big Mac once in a while.
IMDb is kind of weird, because people can put things on there, but then I can't change it.
I wouldn't want to play a character that knew everything and knew where to go. It is much more interesting playing a character that is vulnerable trying to be strong. It makes for better TV.
I really, really admire my parents so much, for how they raised me. They're some of the best human beings I know.
