I'm not going to deny the fact that I've tried pot. I hated it.

Because I'm so much in the spotlight, people lose sight of why I'm in the industry. In fact, I'm doing all this because I love to act. I love to perform, to sing.

I won't live in L.A. again, hell no, my friends tell me s**t when they come over I don't want to hear. I don't even know who got married and who got pregnant. You turn on the news in L.A. and it is all gossip about people. All the stuff that is going on in the world right now and this gossip is the news?... I love the BBC. I haven't heard myself mentioned on TV since I have been here. That has been really weird for me, and great.

I did get to work with Anthony Hopkins on 'The Human Stain.' If I ever manage to accomplish a quarter of what he's achieved, I'll have had one hell of a career.

I still need to go through the process of proving myself.

Obviously, I want to sell records, but I do it because I find it therapeutic. In music I can be myself.

I feel like the modeling industry is a little bit more accepting of women who make mistakes. They appreciate the idea of icons.
