I love doing improv. I love comedy. I have always felt this way, even when I was really young.
I think people, especially the press, like to pick on children of famous people and I think that's awful. Things get made up. It's so, so sad. And there's absolutely nothing you can do about it as a 16-year-old. You're like … 'Why? What did I do?'
I avoid social networks and I try to live a very normal, simple life. I love spending time and hang out with my friends any time I can. I like a very simple life.
I felt so much when I was fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, I felt everything. I didn't understand [myself], I was so happy yet so angry and sad. That was the point when I realized that I needed to tell stories and make characters come alive and I needed to make people cry, and make people angry, and make people happy, and make them laugh.
I love that I'm alone all the time. I love sleeping next to no one. I really don't like solitude.
I was attracted to the positive outlook on women especially exploring relationships with different people and being confident and comfortable and strong. That was the kind of thing that was appealing to me, because that's what's real, and that's honest, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. That's what single women do.
Some people will like it [Fifty Shades of Grey] and some won't. I have other movies coming up, this is not what my whole life turns around.
I think the sexiest thing is a hat. It's very sexy!
I don't think it's something you can be prepared for. I'm just going with the flow.
Being single also sucks sometimes because you're single.
I think there’s a part of a woman that wants to be the thing that breaks a man down.
I don’t have any problem doing anything. The secret is I have no shame.
I had to be physically and emotionally naked, show both my body and soul. I felt emotionally vulnerable and physically exposed, it was a hard choice to make but I was intrigued since the beginning. I think that...the things that scare you the most are the ones you gotta do.
The secret is I have no shame.
