It was a big deal to me to play characters and feel things and connect to somebody in a fake world.

I went to art school when I was little.

I have only really gotten by with playing versions of myself as most young actors do.

I have jeans with holes in them and I have nice jeans. I have casual and I have dressy jeans. I've got all kinds.

I'm always suspicious of people, especially being in a weird realm of people kind of knowing me... and not knowing what people's motives might be.

It's really easy to avoid the tabloids. You just live your life and don't hang out with famous people who are in the tabloids. Don't do anything controversial and be a normal person. Have friends. And get a job and keep working.

Singing was my first love and I never even considered it after I started acting, but now I'm bringing it back into my life. I trained from the ages of 11 to 17. When I moved to New York and got into serious acting, I just kind of abandoned the whole singing thing. But when I grew up in Pennsylvania I went to voice lessons once a week.
