Someone like Russell Crowe is questioned for his passion for music, and whatever he does, music is just in his heart and soul. All he wants to do is music.

My brother's been producing rap music and hip-hop for maybe 10 years.

I definitely have a family. I have a boyfriend who has kids, and we do normal things every day, like get up and go to school. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner.

When entertainment was begun, during the Depression, it was supposed to take people's minds off reality. People could sing, dance, act or do anything. It was the type of entertainment that was available.

Everyone has a childhood, everyone had awkward years and weird stages. Mine were broadcast for eight years.

I stopped acting because I had other passions I wanted to pursue.
