On her daily routine: “I wake up, I pack my Gatorade and many liters of water. I eat a big breakfast: a bowl of oats with lots of fruit and some toast. I head to training, where I f–kin’ go for it for a few hours. Then I have meetings to prepare for the rest of the film. Then I take a shower, shove myself in an ice bath, and then I am miserable while I’m doing that. But then I get out and sleep like a goddamn baby.”

On staying active: “This sounds odd, but I didn’t know that I was the type of person that needs exercise to not feel wound up. If I’m feeling pent up and I don’t know why, if I just move my body, then all of a sudden I’m so much more relaxed.”

On making fun of herself: “It’s the greatest gift I give myself, just being an idiot. I think not being able to make fun of yourself comes from comparing yourself to other people too much. It’s hard not to. I’m human. I do it, too. Whether you’re in the public eye or not, there’s so much we have to let go.”

On her goals, or the lack thereof: “I don’t really make those. Because you’ll never be happy. Either you’ll reach that goal and then just be thinking about the next one, or you won’t reach that goal, and then you’ll be miserable forever.”

It was recently revealed that Joey just signed a huge deal.
