I think maintaining relationships with my friends, my mother, my manager, they're all important.

I wasn't one to go out and buy a new car and stereo system and expensive clothes. My mom helped keep me grounded.

There are a lot of sacrifices a mother makes when she's raising a child by herself. I saw it when I was growing up, watching all my mother did for me. But it wasn't until recently that I fully understood the price she paid because of how we had to struggle.

It was not easy for my mother, being a struggling actress and raising a child. We were these two sort of vagabonds, never knowing where the money was going to come from. She always says she couldn't afford a babysitter, which is why she put me on the stage.

I've always tried to be pretty healthy, eating well and exercising regularly. I definitely give myself treats.

If you're too in your head and you're not in the moment, life passes you by.

My dream is to have a house on the beach, even just a little shack somewhere so I can wake up, have coffee, look at dolphins, be quiet and breathe the air.
