Meeting people is difficult, period. LA is a difficult place to meet people anyway, and Hollywood is such a small community. But I don't make it a rule just to date other actors and people in the entertainment industry. It could work out with me and a dentist. It could work out with me and a lawyer.

I've always been confident with who I was, but my twenties were hard. I had to learn a lot of life lessons and I think my thirties will be a little easier because of all the wrong turns I took.

The main thing is to be philanthropic in your everyday life. You don't have to have money to do that. You can do it with your time and your energy.

I'm a pageant girl from Texas, so I like makeup and hairspray. And the smoky eye? I think I was born with it!
