"When I was nominated for the Emmys, I didn't have a stylist, and I actually had to call my mom and ask her if it's OK that I buy a pair of Christian Louboutin heels. It wasn't even the brand's most expensive style, it was the $400 pair of black ones. My mom was like, 'You've been nominated for an Emmy! Of course, you should buy a pair and celebrate!'"
