I would go to school and be American and then come home and be Greek.

I always did sing. It's always been something I love to do but it has also been the most private and most secret thing that you don't really want to let the world in on.

The Greek side of me definitely loves a good meal, a lot of laughing, loud discussions.

I do think you have to scare yourself. That's where your creativity or your growth comes from. Scaring yourself, challenging yourself, taking those risks, and not caring about what anyone thinks.

My mother is Greek and my father is Bulgarian. I am a first-generation American and native Los Angeleno. I was born and raised in Hollywood.

I'm not trying to prove anything.

You've got to want to be married to the person you're married to.
