I go into every film not just wanting to play the hot girl in the movie. It kills me.

I don't ever want to be doing the same sort of thing, I never want to be typecast, because I have way too much to give to be sort of, to always be the hot chick in the movie.

I definitely believe in fate. And I believe what you put in is what you get in return. That's the way it's worked for me. As for the big picture - there's some sort of plan.

A lot of people loved to hate my character on 24. I want to be the character people love to love.

I'm used to being someone else 10 months out of the year.

When I was 20, I thought I was 30 - but I was so far from it. When you're young, you want everything to happen now. As you mature, you can look back and see all the great things you achieved with time and patience.

The problem with TV now is that there's so much competition, that you're always on the chopping block.
