I'm open to different parts. I would love to do something where I can sing and act at the same time.
I don't get into the favorite songs thing, because so many speak to different parts of my life, but the music in the '90s is just unbeatable.
I have so much to talk about. I have so much to share. There are so many different emotions going on inside of me right now.
I've had to come through a lot and I've made a lot of different mistakes, but I realized that I never gave up. I wanted to so badly.
It's easy to just give everything up, but it takes a lot of strength and a lot of willpower to just make yourself stay on it and get up and do something different. And I had to do that.
When you don't have a child to think about, life is a lot easier, but when you do, the thought process is a little different.
I love music. That's my first love. I'm actually going to start working on that full-time very soon, but I love acting as well. It satisfies a different part of who I am. I love to pretend, to imagine, try new things, work with different people, and just see how far I can go.
Stay true to yourself because it goes a long way. If you don't know who you are, who are you really?
That's the beautiful part about acting - you get to play somebody other than yourself. So, I'm open to people who can't sing, people who can, people that sing a little bit, or people that sing a lot.
I would love to play a main character and then play different characters as well. I would want for it to be a sitcom, multicamera, audience - that's definitely a dream. It's in the works, so...it's closer than everybody thinks it is.
I'm always smiling and happy.
Now that the baby is coming, I will do a lot more balancing. I'm going to be a real mommy.
Nothing can stop me from loving my brother.
I just want to continue to do comedy. Comedy, I'm discovering, is my niche. It's what I'm born to do, so I would love to have my own sitcom one day in the future.
