So many people around me would say they cared for the wrong reasons. A lot of people were pulling from me, taking from me and not giving.

It was a sobering experience.

I wanted to do what Marilyn Monroe did (during the Korean War), when she went and just set up a stage and did a concert for the troops all by herself. It's so amazing seeing that one woman just going somewhere, this beautiful sex kitten, who's basically a pinup, which is what I've always aspired to be.

I have always admired and had enormous respect for Elizabeth Taylor. She was not only an incredible actress but an amazing woman as well.

When I did 'Parent Trap,' I was ten. I was thrown off by the whole fame thing.

I write a lot of lyrics and I'm involved in the producing process, because it's like, if I'm singing it, I want it to be something that I can relate to.

I just love fashion. I think it just expresses who you are so much.
