When I was eight years old, or I may have been younger, my aunt picked me up and threw me in the pool and I didn't know how to swim. It was like, "Conquer your fear and just get on with it." It must have made an impact on me.

Sure, I'd take the responsibility of queen any day.

I don't mind playing the same character, but if it's not well done, then I'm not interested.

There are so many heroes just walking around in everyday life. It blows me away.

This is funny because I just had a job over the summer for VH1, a project I did called Strange Frequency where I got to play a Goth rock band singer.

Sometimes decisions get made and it ends up being God doing for you what you couldn't do for yourself.

I have insecurities about being a good mom, or balancing my career with motherhood. All of those are very strong, very real obstacles. My motto is just unconsciously, and maybe now consciously because I'm saying it, is sink or swim. I'm a fighter.
