I think people think I'm a lot younger than I am because of how I look on screen.
There's some people that obviously abuse social networking or whatever, but I think it's a fantastic idea. I've never had any bad encounters with any of it.
It's never black and white on 'Game of Thrones.' If you think it's black and white, you're watching it wrong.
Basically, me and Ed Sheeran are kind of Twitter friends - well, I say that. He probably just thinks I'm weird.
I watch vlogs on YouTube. I watch Jenna Marbles a lot - I think she's really funny - and a lady called Daily Grace.
I struggle to come up to people and say what I think.
When I'm dancing, I don't know where the confidence comes from, but I just pretend I'm someone else, I think, and then I go out and dance.
I'm never really going to be the normal teenager.
I'm never going to do something that I don't want to do, because I've been given the opportunity to not have to do that.
I know things aren't perfect for women in the U.K. and in America, but there are women in the rest of the world who have it far worse.
I like the fact that when you're put into a really extreme situation, you put everything else aside. You put your ego aside and get on with it, and I quite like that.
I like 'Glee' a lot. It's kind of like my guilty pleasure.
I like shocking people just because, like, I can wear a dress, too. Not even for people to go, 'Oh she's grown up,' but to show people that I'm actually a girl.
I hope there are going to be plenty of more roles to come.
