To be honest with you, I'm more of a girl's girl. I'm much more comfortable being around other girls.

I view my career like a rubber-band ball in that every role is a new experience building toward something bigger.

I didn't want to be known as the reality-show star trying to be an actress, so I kept a lot of the failed auditions to myself.

There are these creative shows, all on cable, that are just so daring and out there. That's the stuff I really want to be a part of, like with 'Sucker Punch' and 'Hangover 2.' Those movies didn't hold back. They really went for it.

I love photography, I love food, and I love traveling, and to put those three things together would just be the ultimate dream.

I feel like always wanting more... that's how you grow and learn. You can't just be satisfied with where you are. There's so much more to learn and consume.

The casting directors that were aware of 'The Real World' looked at me as a joke. It was so hard to get away from that.
