Working hard and appreciating the accomplishments that have come from that keeps me grounded.

When you work with an actor, it's cool because they know what it's like to be directed themselves. Jodie directed a scene with me and Taylor that was when she starts talking to me again in prison and it's our first actual confrontation that we have, where some stuff comes out.

When I see a beautiful piece of art, it inspires me to be creative.

Food is a passion because I basically grew up in a kitchen.

And my mouth is not a sewer, although some people may think it is.

To make a long story short, I auditioned for the role of Piper because I read the pilots every year and this show was head-and-shoulders above any pilot I've read in awhile. It was amazing. So, I read for Piper and I knew that I wasn't really right for it, but I loved it so much that I wanted to read for it.

Even in real life, I'd rather hang out with guys.
