My dad was a musician and I traveled around with him, so it was something that I knew

A lot of people want to judge the fact that I'm an actor. That's ridiculous. No one knows what I was doing before I made my first movie. I just happened to do it as an actor all the while I've been doing music, but never with the intention to become a screaming famous pop star.

Watching people party is cool, but I don't love watching people get super-duper trashed and annoying. I feel protected behind my booth - away from the madness, but a part of it too.

I don't really like approach music to become famous. I've actually consciously made the decision that I'm just going to do music because I love it.

With acting, I get to escape into this character and embody it. With music it's like, "Hey guys, this is my diary, here's all my feelings."

I'm more like an animalistic rock chick.

I won't even take jobs where you get paid to sit with a group of friends and party. That's never been my vibe.
