I feel like the feminine has been a little undervalued. We all have to get our own jobs and make our own money, but staying at home, nurturing, being the mother, cooking — it's a valuable thing my mom created. And sometimes, you need your knight in shining armor. I'm sorry. You need a man to be a man and a woman to be a woman. That's why relationships work.

A singer is someone who puts out an album. That's a very generous description.

When you get older, you feel better about yourself. You're not worried what other people think about you, in general. You just get more comfortable in your skin.

I was always in and out of school. What I learned in high school is that female friendships are so much more important than worrying about having a boyfriend or looking good or things like that. I had such a good girlfriend growing up that we didn't need anything. We had such a creative world of our own imagination together. For me, if I have a child, I would say, "I hope you find a best friend that makes it so you don't really need much but each other." Learning about that type of friendship and trust is one of the best things I ever got out of school.

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

I was a very imaginative and theatrical child and wasn't afraid of being in front of a camera.

I've learned to do a movie and then not be in that place for a long time.
