I don't think roles help you resolve your issues. I just think they're good markers.

And sometimes, you need your knight in shining armour.

Madonna is my role model shes such a powerful woman. I love Gwenyth Paltrow, shes an actress I aspire to be like. And, of course, my mom. She drove me from New Jersey to New York every day for commercials so I could get where I am today.

If I'd trusted myself and listened to myself all the times that I ignored myself, I would have been fine. But everyone has to learn their lesson, and now I've got it.

It's always nice when people appreciate your work because it means you've affected them, which is great. And so that feels good.

To be in someone's favorite film is just - that's what you want. You want to be in great films that are memorable.

When I was younger, I always did movies that teenagers would watch, not adults. I did 'Crazy/Beautiful' or comedies like 'Bring It On.'
