Singing really is acting. In a lot of ways, it's much more personal. I love music, and being able to work on that is amazing.
I used to buy everything at garage sales. It was hard to give up! I’d be like, ‘But this crazy sweater is amazing, and it only cost 25 cents!’
I never played sports. I wasn't any good at them.
High school for me was not all that fun. I think it's a lot more fun after when you realize that high school ends, and everything that's important at that time is sort of not important if people don't like your jeans or whatever. It doesn't matter.
I really like to be able to have variety and to try different things - that's the beauty of fashion.
Figure out what works for you and what doesn't.
It's hard to have any kind of luck in this business.
It'll be kids next. I like the grown-up stuff. I like having a house. I've got dogs.
I don't want to have a friend unless I can call them one of my best friends.
Success to me is being happy, truly fulfilled, being proud of myself, and doing different things all the time.
I really like those days when I can just wear sweatpants, to be honest. And when I'm actually going to go somewhere, I like to be comfortable and casual. If I'm doing something a little more fashion, going a little bit further. It's about expressing yourself and being comfortable and wearing what you like.
I love Edith Wharton. And I love old New York. Anything to do with New York.
I don't want to pursue someone at all - I want someone to pursue me.
It's wonderful to be in love. And it's definitely wonderful to cuddle and have sex and get to experience life with somebody. But it's OK if you don't find him and you're 24. You can find it someday.
