I always think it's really hard if you are Asian or Chinese to be really in Hollywood. There are not so many really great characters for you.

I suspect people always thought I had a boyfriend, so nobody came after me.

Actually I ran away from school when I was 13. No one could find me, and the police were called. I was just hiding in a little thicket of grass at my school, and went to sleep.

In China, we don't consider someone truly beautiful until we have known them for a long time, and we know what's underneath the skin.

I wanted to escape so badly. But of course I knew I couldn't just give up and leave school. It was only when I heard my mom's voice that I came out of my hiding place.

My parents sent me to a dance class, so it was a road chosen by them, not me. But I enjoyed it so much I knew I would become a performer.

Whatever you see - any good results - are all from the pressure.
