I've sung my whole life. I've taken lots of voice lessons and I love to sing. But I've never really sung professionally at all.

There is no definition of beauty, but when you can see someone's spirit coming through, something unexplainable, that's beautiful to me.

I love to go shopping at Target. They have so much stuff there, you can buy almost anything, it's really amazing.

I am scared of becoming a mother.

I just remember saying to myself that I'd much rather do movies than modeling, and that it was worth a try. I didn't really know anything about it. I hadn't seen many movies, or so-called, good movies. When I was a kid, I was obsessed with Star Wars and Night of the Living Dead. When I got more curious about the movies, I thought they were something you had to learn about and go to school for and read every book.

We put so much pressure on ourselves as parents to be able to do everything, but children are very grateful and understanding. I always find that quality time, even if you just get a little bit, really has a deep impact. But you also need them to know that they can make mistakes, and if they do make a mistake it's OK for them to tell you and that they'll get a second chance.

It was a very good experience. It wasnt just to make a movie, it was my life. I was employed at The Lord of the Rings for a year and a half.
