Well, when I moved to L.A. at 17, I had just come out of high school. I grew up and went to public school in Boston.

I wanted to be a political science professor and go to school in Boston. I never wanted to be a big, famous movie star and TV star. It kind of found me.

My mother would take groups of students to different countries and always brought us along, so by the time I was 10, I had been to Russia, China, Nicaragua and several other countries.

I don't care who you are, everyone has been through it - that feeling where you'd like to be someone else.

I'm a more mature actress now.

I don't let guys do hickeys. That's like a dog marking his territory or something.

There is definitely something sexy about a girl with an attitude and a pair of leather pants.
