Everything for me has happened so quickly. I finished shooting 'The Blind Side' not this past June, but the June before, and all of sudden up to now, it seems like it's gone from zero to 60 for me. I feel so fortunate to be able to say that.

When your whole being is attracted to someone else's whole being, then I think that is someone you were meant to be connected with at some point.

I love watching old movies anyway - I grew up with my mom watching old movies and being immersed in the history of old Hollywood.

I really think everything happens for a reason.

I was actually the one who decided to move to LA. Mom and I were driving on Sunset Boulevard during one of our trips back to see her family, and I said, 'Can we just stay?' So we did.

When I first covered [presidential election ] in 2008, I was asking questions for kids around the world, but mainly for myself. I didn't know the process, I didn't know how it worked. Now, of course, I'm more schooled on it, but I deal with so much politics in my fashion work and in Hollywood, that I haven't been as connected this time.

I love clothes, but I don't have a specific favorite, because I'm very much a fashionista.
