I think life is meant to be fun. You find work that you love and you surround yourself with people that you love. Life shouldn't be too difficult.

I can't age on the inside, and I'm totally okay with that. I have no need to grow up and see myself as mature.

My whole thing is I want to have a backup plan because maybe I won't get another acting job after 'Fame', maybe I'll want to give up on acting in five years or whatever and I want to have something else that I enjoy just as much as I enjoy acting.

I spend so much time with my parents. My mom and I were joined at the hip for five years. There was not one moment when I wasn't with her.

I just feel like I haven't grown up yet. I live on my own and I do grown-up things, but there is something about me that is very youthful.

I'm at a weird spot because I look so young and I feel young, but I'm not young.

I've actually always wanted to be able to read people's minds. My sister did a movie with super-powers and that's the one I would have wanted, so I really lucked out. The negative is that people are really cruel in their own minds, but you can weed out the bad people from the good people, and then just hang out with the good people.
