In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Heather McDonald admitted to being fascinated with fainting, saying, "I guess it's the attention that faint victims have gotten throughout the history of soap operas that attracted me to it, but I always felt if I fainted at least once it would bring some richness to my life experience. I could tell people at cocktail parties, 'I was so embarrassed when I looked up and saw all my coworkers looking down on me. I guess I had just forgotten to eat that day.'"
She also said her biggest fear is going to prison for a crime she didn't commit, "I'm obsessed with 48 Hours Mystery especially if it's about infidelity, murder, and disposing of a spouse's dead body. If they are rich and attractive, I'm even more intrigued," she admitted.
McDonald continued to explain, "So what if I woke up one morning, and my husband was dead, and somehow they spun it that I poisoned him, and I was convicted? At first, it would be horrible – like going to public middle school – but then I'd soon learn to impersonate all the guards and win over the inmates, and soon they'd be saying, 'White b***h with the great hair is f-ing funny.'" And she's right — she is funny.
