Of her career, Amy Smart told E! News, I always like to keep my work varied so I dont get pigeonholed into one category of movies or really just end up bored professionally. I like trying new things and challenging myself as an actress so while Ive done a lot of drama, Ive also done a few comedies, some romantic comedies and some horror. I think the only way you can continue to improve as a performer is to keep pushing yourself.

Regarding filming sex scenes, Amy Smart said, Its just another way to live out a fantasy because you wouldnt probably do this in real lifeIm not scared to look like a complete fool in front of people. Its just not one of my insecurities (askmen.com).

Aside from acting, Amy Smart is an environmentalist and was a speaker for Heal the Bay, an organization that works on cleaning up the ocean. She has said, Seriously, for me, Im a real environmentalist, and I volunteer a lot when Im not working. So, if I were to get $2 million, I would probably want to donate that (askmen.com). She added in a later interview, I do a lot of environmental work and help with different charities, and that feeds me on a soulful level. I just try to stay from drama in my life. Im pretty simple (collider.com).

Amy Smart married Carter Oosterhouse, the eco-carpenter from HGTV in September 2011. She also put up her Beverly Hills cottage and the couple is looking for a place large enough in which to raise a family.
