Cheerleading was my way in. It was one of the most rigorous audition processes ever. It definitely groomed me for Hollywood.

I like a man who can come out and say he's nervous on the first date. I think that would be really cute.

Honestly, as an actor, all I need to know, the way I kind of look at a scene, is like a puzzle. There are certain puzzle pieces that are bigger than others, and all I need to know is if this is going to fit here to make this part of the puzzle work.

Just because we are women doesn't mean the only roles we can play are that of the finger-shaking girlfriend.

My great-great-grandfather was a shah back in the 1800s. Unfortunately, I don't have any gold coins or jewels to show for it.

NFL cheerleading is harder than most people think. They train up to six hours every day with games on Sundays. They gave me a great work ethic.

When I finish a workout, I feel pretty sexy. Even though I'm sweaty and I don't smell like a rose, I feel strong. It does a lot for me mentally and physically.
