I'm lucky to attribute my success to the foundation my family gave me. I've always felt grounded in them.

Having this other career in music made me work harder as an actress. It's made me more professional.

When people come up to me and say, 'You made it,' I think, 'But I'm not done yet. Not everyone's heard my music.' I want to be a household name.

I love music and I guess I have less expectations or pressure to kind of put on myself because the music hasn't been some huge sensation.

I take advantage of the opportunities that have come my way. I think I've lucked out that I've never been thrust in the spotlight where people wanted to dissect every aspect of my life. I've been given a lot of distance and respect. It's allowed me the best of both worlds. I have the job of my dreams, but I also have the freedom that doesn't always come with it. I feel very lucky in that sense.

I love rollercoasters, thrill-seeking, all of that is fun.

I kind of feel in a way all of us will forever be asking those questions of ourselves. Who am I and how do I fit in in the world and what is all this about? Because those aren't really... there are no answers to those questions in a sense.
