A mistake is just a temporary pause in your plan.

If there's something in the kitchen I like, it must be eaten. I try not to leave any snacks I wouldn't want to eat on a daily basis in the cupboard.

If you say, 'You've made it,' then you kind of come to a standstill, and I don't think any actor wants to do that.

Personally, when I don't feel like working out, I put on my workout clothes and pump up some music. It's definitely my #1 inspiration.

I speak about family and adoption because it 100% changed my life and who I am. It definitely played a very large role into just learning how to be grateful for what you have and being fulfilled in a way that a lot of adopted kids don't feel.

Being in the limelight with Glee, I've definitely felt pressure to stay fit. But honestly, you have to ignore it.

I always say leave things at the door. Whether it's at your audition or at your house, leave the problems of the day away. Keep persevering, stick to yourself. Don't do what other people ask, do what you want!
