People saw me as just a singer - yeah, a pretty face who could sing - and not more than that,
Awards are not something that I measure my work by. I've been so fortunate and I've gotten to do such terrific things that it seems petty to look back and say, 'Oh, I should have gotten that prize.' I don't look at it that way.
I'm ready and open to meeting the person that hopefully I'll share my life with. It takes a long time to get to that place.
I watched so many movies when I was a kid, and I'd watch them over and over.
What is wrong with you people?
In an ideal world for me, I would like to go back and forth [between film and theater]. I kind of want to do it all
It's interesting, a lot of my friends and family thought that was the moment I kind of showed everyone my humor; the silly side of me that friends and family know, so that could be what people were responding to. I have a big sense of humor, and people who know me know that silly side of me, so moving forward, I think it gives me the freedom and confidence to do more of that.
You always have to make positive choices as an actor, even when you're playing someone who may not be doing the best things.
Once I came to acting, it was almost a thing where there weren't enough hours in the day to work on stuff because I was so passionate about it.

Life doesn't move in a linear fashion. Life makes lefts and rights, and it doubles back.
I was a very awkward high schooler, especially in early high school. I had the middle part with a swoop, all that. It was the late ’90s!
I still sing every day - in the shower or on the set all day. I'm sure everyone will tell you that I never shut up. But it's not in the capacity that I would like to.
Cats and I have an understanding, but we choose not to interact often.
