My mom gives me an allowance. She keeps me pretty tight-reined.

When you're a pilot, and you know all the ways to survive an airplane crash and how low the chances are, you feel safer.

I hope to make acting my career for the rest of my life, if I can. If acting doesn't work out, I'd love to produce or direct or write. I just want to stay in this business, definitely. That would be my number one thing. I always want to be an actress.

My mom won't let anyone treat me like a little princess.

I have a lot of looks but right now I'm really into grunge. Messy hair, black heels. I get Michelle Pfeiffer with it.

When I've done gymnastics, ballet or soccer - I was always trying to be the best. I'm really driven. Really driven.

I've gotten a lot of young gay kids come up to me and talk to me about how the little things I've said in the press has helped them come out to their parents, or just be open with who they are, and feeling invigorated by that. So that honestly means a lot to me to hear that the things that I say in the press, they do hear, and they see, and it helps them at least to start the conversation.
