Just so normal...
What I love about Maura is that she is just so 'normal'. I've just watched her on Jimmy Kimmel, and she is so damned down to earth and funny, even though she is one of the most talented people on TV. She seems so unaffected by fame (at least that's how she comes across in interviews) and doesn't mind sending herself up for a laugh, e.g the pics of her driving offences! I think she's really inspirational. Everyone agree?
By the way I met her after 'Three Changes' and got a pic with her, and the (old) lady taking the pic kept holding my camera around the wrong way (so it was pointing at herself instead) and Maura was just creased up laughing, which was quite amusing - so I think she's much the same in private.
