Most parents who found their child talking to their dental retainer would probably seek the assistance of a psychiatrist. Instead, when a young Anna Faris started doing it at home in Baltimore, Maryland, her parents took it as a sign that she had a creative mind and enrolled her in acting classes. It proved to be the right way of handling the situation. Before they knew it, she was writing, producing, and performing plays with the rest of the children in the neighborhood.
Considering her looks are a part of what got her cast in films like 'Scary Movie' and (obviously) 'The Hot Chick,' Faris considers herself to have been a late bloomer. She says she was a 'drama club dork' back in high school, and nobody was interested in dating her until senior year. She almost left America to accept a position in London, England, at an advertising agency, but the 'Scary Movie' role came through at the last second and changed the course of her life.
