You can't be a kid in show business. You will not survive.

I was self-conscious of what I would call my "tree-trunk legs" because they are very muscular... but now I've learned to love them.

I do always have a wall up. But I feel by doing it, I keep myself safe.

I have three closets in my bedroom.

I just lip gloss! It doesn't matter if it's $2 or $30.

I like friends who are honest and loyal. They also shouldn't be afraid to be a kid. I like having fun.

I've had many nicknames over the years: V, Nessa, Nessy Poo, Nessy Bear and Van. Only my parents call me Van, though, and I hate it. I get embarrassed.
