I'm home schooled, and I have a teacher that goes with me on all my movies.

There's just something you can relate to immediately, even without knowing a woman. It's an inherent thing, an inherent connection. I'm really appreciating it and valuing that.

It can be easy to get caught up in craziness or insecurity.

You have to be totally one hundred per cent committed to act. I do value everyone else's advice, but ultimately I have to listen to myself.

I've been very lucky enough to do all kinds of movies. All the movies that I've done have been very different, and all the characters I've done have been very different. I feel very lucky to have been able to do the movies that I've done.

I remember when I was very little my idol was Britney Spears. I had just come to California and that's just who I wanted to meet. So I was in a store and she walked in and my jaw just fell to the floor. I started like sweating. I could not believe that I was meeting her. She told me that I was very cute. And I lost it — I was so excited.

When you're acting you put so much of yourself into working. As much fun as it is, it's still hard work and it's still a challenge.
