Olivia (II) Wilde quotes
- (In the interview Wilde at Heart to Sara Vilkomerson to The New York
Observer on April 15 2007) When people saw
The Black Donnellys, they didn't know it was the same
girl from The O.C.. I'm a natural blonde, but I feel
like a brunette. I feel like people treat me now how I should be
treated. People used to be shocked, when I was blond, that I wasn't
stupid. I used to get these comments that I swear people thought were
compliments. Like, 'Oh! You're smart!' - like they couldn't believe it.
