Everybody wants a sensational story.

I want the kids who watch 'One Tree Hill' to know that it's all pretend, and that the person at the core of that character values morals, honor and things like that. You want to inspire them to look beyond what is superficial and try to find that greater thing.

Isn't Googling someone the first thing everyone does?! They meet someone new and Google them!

I don't engage in social media, which has its good and bad sides, I guess - but the good side is when people hate my guts, I'm kind of oblivious to it.

I've always been very vocal about my religion. It's a big part of who I am.

In the world of Facebook and Twitter, you can treasure hunt for tidbits about somebody that you find interesting and pretty much find out everything you need to know - which is why I stay away from social media - I'm terrified of it.

One Tree Hill was a great learning opportunity for me, and Im excited to go and apply that elsewhere and see where I end up.
