Katee Sackhoff: (In an interview about her new SciFi project, Sentinel.) She's got blue hair and a scar down her face, and she's covered in tattoos, and she's pretty much just a renegade. Like, she's really bad. She's got knives like hidden all over her body. Yeah, so I'm excited.
Katee Sackhoff: Kara Thrace is THE best Viper pilot--ever.
Katee Sackhoff: Well, you know. I’m one of those people, losing weight for me is not easy. For one thing, I love food. I really like to eat.
Her character in the movie Halloween: Resurrection was an aspiring actress who was unfortunately murdered in the film.
Currently she has 3 tattoos: 1. On the back of her neck is a Japanese kanji symbol for 'choice' which is rarely seen in the series and one of the reasons she grew her hair longer between the mini-series and Season 2. 2. She has another tattoo of a cross on her back that is covered by large bandages whenever her shoulder is uncovered, such as in the episode "The Farm" (Christianity exists in a different form in Battlestar Galactica). 3. She has one tattoo on her left forearm that reads "Bona fiscalia," which means "public property" in Latin. It is visible in numerous episodes.

Her mother used to say that Katee used to be the class clown, who needed to be the center of attention.
She doesn't read the SciFi.com message boards, but she does read and answer all of her fan mail.
Katee Sackhoff: (speaking about Dirk Benedict) If Dirk pitched up to work on the show I’d probably quit. I met him in Los Angeles and I thought we’d really hit it off. He was a great guy, he was very complimentary and very un-Hollywood. Then he turned around a month later and talked complete crap about the show and the actors on it. He wrote an article saying the network sold out and my character was more brash than his character. I felt like he’d stabbed me in the back.
She smoked cigarettes until the beginning of Season 3 of Battlestar Galactica.
She met with Dirk Benedict (former Starbuck) for an interview at Starbucks!

Katee: (In response to Dirk Benedict (the original "Starbuck") for his comments about the new series) If you add up the amount of time Dirk Benedict spent playing the character, not the years obviously but the number of episodes, I’m more Starbuck than he is, so put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Her favorite TV shows are Charmed and Alias.
Katee Sackhoff: I get some very nice fan letters. Someone actually sent one to my parents, with another letter inside for me. Kinda weird.
