I don't really resent being on the red carpet as much as I do having to deal with the paparazzi.

Well let me tell you what [High School Musical] is really about. High School Musical is about this group of boys who are all being molested by the basketball coach, who is Zac Efron's dad. It's about them struggling to cope with this molestation. And they have these little girlfriends, who are their beards. Oh, and somehow there's music involved. You have to get stoned to watch it.

My weight fluctuates constantly—I don't really take good care of myself. I just sort of exist and survive.

I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange.

I loved 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.' It was such a big part of my childhood.

I feel like it's impossible to please the hardcore comic book fans, because they'll never be happy no matter what you do.

It's an immense amount of pressure, celebrity itself.
