People always tell me, Don’t work so much, but I can’t help it. I feel like all the things I’ve done are important to get to this adult stage now and now I’m getting all these adult offers, so it’s working.

I live in New York now and most of magazines have turned more towards reality stars. So, really I think that's great because it's turned towards people who want it rather than... So, I think it's actually kind of imploding in on itself a little bit.

I used to feel like I had to be the best at what I did, but I realized I don't have to be the best. It's so freeing. I've never been this happy.

When I was little, I put on plays for my family at Sunday dinner, and I would direct them and have all my cousins, my brother, and my best friends in it. I was a very imaginative and theatrical child and wasn't afraid of being in front of a camera. It was like make-believe to me.

I've never had a teenage rebellion, I'm not that type of person. I always work out my problems in a conscientious way.

I love my snaggle fangs. They give me character and character is sexy.

When I go away to do a movie, I bring the blanket I've had since I was a little girl. It helps me sleep. I also always bring my laptop so I can E-mail friends. And I bring my dog, Beauty, wherever I can.
