It was at Bell Labs that I first made direct contact with real semiconductor experts and thus began to fully understand what amazing materials they were and what they could do.

I think Damien Hirst is hilarious. And I think he's a true artist. He's not hilarious first I think he is a real artist and I also think he's got an amazing sense of humor.

I was the first spokesperson for the Better Hearing Institute in Washington. And that's the message we tried to send out - there is hearing help out there and the technology and options are amazing.

I remember the first time I felt that I was sharing the stage with someone spectacular was dancing with Beyonce. It was the dancers the band Beyonce and me in front of thousands of people. That was sick. It was pretty amazing that I got to travel the world with someone like her.

I walked to Seward School first through fourth grade. It's just amazing to me now that we'd walk down 10th Avenue on Capitol Hill.

Everybody just asks me 'Are you going to make Hollywood movies now?' First I don't know. Second I never dreamed about that I just dreamed about making movies with Tarantino. So if I can make movies with a lot of amazing directors - yes.

Dick Van Dyke was my first idol. He's an amazing physical comedian like a classic clown but also very smart and not afraid to show vulnerability.

Before 'Twilight ' occasionally I would get the 'Hey are you that girl from that movie?' but no one knew my first and last name. The fans of the saga are amazing and it's very flattering.

The Madden NFL franchise holds a special place in popular culture and the cover is a coveted position for players all over the league. I'm honored to be the first cover athlete chosen by Madden NFL fans and it's a great way to cap off an amazing year for the Saints and the city of New Orleans.

I wore my first pair of Louboutins during this press tour. It was absolutely amazing they weren't heels they were little shoes but they were velvet and they were blue.

It's amazing how fast generations lose sight of other generations. One of the first things the young composers who come to work with me say is that they want to write music people will like instead of gaining their credentials by being rejected by the audience.

My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them but because he's so nice. When I did his fashion show he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.

Alexander Gonzalez Inarritu is a great director. He's the one I first worked with. He's amazing.

That's an amazing moment the first time you hear yourself on radio. It's still thrilling.

Being on 'Glee' was amazing. I remember my first day on set my first day I arrived to the set I was in my trailer and all of the actors came and banged on my door - Lea Michele Chris Colfer Amber Riley Naya Rivera. They all welcomed me with open arms so it was a great experience. It felt like family and I miss them a lot over there.

You get moments all the time that kind of make you pinch yourself some of them make you quite emotional. Winning a BRIT was a big moment because we were just so excited to be at the awards in the first place. Selling out Madison Square Garden was pretty amazing too. Then we woke to the news that our UK tour was sold out. It was crazy.

First of all plain and simple you have no real idea of what it means to be famous until you become famous. It's a double-edged sword. Obviously there are a lot of amazing things about fame but there are also a lot of challenging things about it.

I was dating my first boyfriend in high school for a long time and we broke up before prom. I hadn't met anyone else that I really wanted to go with and my friends have always been amazing. So I went with my friends and got a million photos with them!

My dad was working abroad in Iraq and he was a doctor. We used to go and visit him in Baghdad off and on. For the first ten years of my life we used to go backwards and forwards to Baghdad so that was quite amazing. I spent a lot of time traveling around the Middle East.

The feeling of your baby taking nourishment from your body for the first time is amazing and it remains the most touching moment of my life.

The right really dominates radio and it's amazing how much energy the right spends telling us that the press is slanted to the left when it really isn't. They want to shut other people up. They really don't understand the First Amendment.

When you first have a baby your life doesn't change. I mean you have a little less sleep and you drag these cuddly things around you and it's just amazing. But you still get to be you. Once they get to like five six and school and it starts to get like 'Wow they got real problems. They're my responsibility.' Oh my God. That is overwhelming.
