I used to get taxed on my allowance. Yeah, I've been taxed since I was a little kid. And at the end of the year I had to pick a charity to donate my taxes to.
Five years on TV is a really, really long time.
I make fun of guys when I like them. I act like I'm 10 years old. I do it as a test to see if they can laugh at themselves. If they get sensitive, then it's like, 'Um, this isn't going to work.'
When you're writing a book, you don't want it to be overly trendy because you want people to enjoy it for years and refer back to it.
The normal 21-year-old doesn't have to worry about their night out being put on TMZ.
I have fashion designers that I definitely respect. After working for a few years in the industry, you want to branch out and do your own thing and I think that's something that has always been important to me is strengthening the brand and just sticking to "this is who we are, this is our identity, this is who we're going to be". I definitely respect other designers but I don't necessarily have one that I look up to.
I've spent years saying no to things. It's important to be selective with both projects and partners.
Some people are willing to betray years of friendship just to get a little bit of the spotlight.
None of my friends call me L.C. That was just a high school nickname, and nobody refers to me like that anymore.
I'm comfortable in front of the camera, but I can't act.
I'm just not a fan of the gym. In fact, I hate it. I understand loving the feeling you get after working out all those endorphins. But going there? It's the worst.
There's not one person that I say I want to look like.
I mean, it's fun to go out and do stuff in Hollywood, but if it was gone tomorrow, I really wouldn't be disappointed.
Kristin -- no matter how much you hate her, she's always fun to hang out with.
