I started singing at the Met when I was seven, and the competition was so fierce that it really prepared me.

I always wanted an older brother. That was my thing. My mom would be like, "What do you want for your birthday?" I'd be like, "I want an older brother."

I know that I am my worst critic. I know that if I can walk away from the set at the end of the day and feel that I did the best job I could and feel proud, that's what will satisfy me.

A lot of my hair and makeup, and everything I pull for inspiration, is [drawn] from old photographs.

I feel like, as an adult, a lot of how you feel about yourself and what your inner workings are can be revealed in a sexual situation.

I've learned to take jobs as an actress that is meaningful to me because I've never taken a job for the money.

I've never been a person who focused on trends. I'm influenced and inspired by trends, but I don't always subscribe to them.
