There are parallels between the music and film worlds, but they're really very different. I feel like they're just two different ways to channel my creativity.

I'm really kind of boring - I'd rather go to bed early and get up early because I really value my time off, my time away from work.

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

I definitely am looking to do some more dramatic roles; I'd love to do a period piece. I'm just getting started; I feel like there's a whole wealth of options out there to try my hand at.

I'd say the key to a good relationship is communication .

Music is my passion. It's my priority. I love it.

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.
