Holland is 5 stars all the way across. Brilliantly beautiful and beautifully brilliant.

One of my most favorite actresses! Her life story is so interesting and inspiring, and the amount of work she puts into a role, and her passion and fire is truly mesmerizing. I adore her!

I always go back to that video and watch it over and over again, because I feel like it's taking a drama class.

I am totally jealous of Sarah Paulson and want to be her! She is so blessed, to have an ideal career as an actress/star and to have the love of such a posh, lovely lady as Holland in her life! If distance and life's circumstances were different for me, I may have been the lucky one. But, I guess if I can't be Sarah Paulson and be with Holland, I'm glad at least somebody can---cause we onlookers need to see that kind of happiness, even between others, as a reminder that it could happen for us too.

charismatic, awesome, beautiful, enlightening, funny, smart, honest. An eye-dessert if that word exists in English:-)

Stand-out performer. First saw her in Bosom Buddies, where she made a strong impression. Now I’m watching her in Netflix series Hollywood all these years later. She is spectacular.

I adore her so much! Love her originally from Legally Blonde, to all the boys I loved 2, then I saw her *INCREDIBLE* performance in the tv series Hollywood, she’s also dating one of my favorite actresses, Sarah Paulson!
