Being on a movie set is wonderful experience, but it's a bubble - it isn't real life.

I see myself as a mascot for the kids who get beat down and don't feel like they belong.

I always had the idea that I wanted to perform. I love being the center of attention - and I always love talking about myself.

I don't think I'd really be alive without it, in all honesty.

Being able to do lead roles in pictures or onstage or whatever it is that you're doing in acting is obviously what you strive for because you want to better yourself as an actor and you want to better yourself as a person as well. But that does come with a lot of responsibility and a great deal of weight.

People can hate on you for doing what it is that makes you happy, but ultimately it has to belong to you. It shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks.

I think I'm nervous to sign on to any job.
