I totally believe in romance and love and all that.

I love romantic comedies. I have a deep respect for them. I think they're really difficult to write and write well.

If I can surround myself with hilarious people every day, I will always want to go to work.

I was a chubby, chubby little tub-tub. At the times when it mattered: twelve, thirteen, and fourteen. I'm so happy I was. If you're beautiful young, you really miss out on developing parts of yourself.

In high school, I was on the youth advisory council for the Mayor's Office of Los Angeles, and that was kind of my first experience in the bureaucratic system. We tried to get things done, and nobody was really interested in getting anything done.

Music will always be a part of my life, but career-wise, acting is where my heart is.

I have six brothers and sisters. We all look totally different: blonde hair, curly hair, green eyes, dark eyes, dark skin, light skin. It's just how it is.
