confident thin trying
I think it's so important to be healthy and confident and natural. And not put too much stress on trying to be thin - I don't get the thin, thin thing at all.

I saw this cool interview with Amy Adams from when she did 'Enchanted' and played a princess, and when kids came up to her with no make-up and ripped jeans on, she said, 'I'm off duty. I'm an off-duty princess', and I thought that was quite sweet.

Growing up, I was always prancing around and singing... and I just never really stopped.

God, I used to have really skinny-crap eyebrows. They were such an ugly disaster.

I admire actresses like Jennifer Lawrence, who says what she thinks.

Ultimately, 'Cinderella' is the story of the underdog. You root for her in this fairytale; the girl who has nothing, deserves so much more, and gets it.
board brothers came cupboard games time
When the board games came out of the cupboard when I was a kid, I had to beat my two brothers every time.
