Music is hugely important to me.
I think there is this thing where people are impressed - it gives you a leg up in the sense that people won't treat you like a run-of-the-mill actress. They'll assign "smart" to your word bank, your adjective bank.
Mom is the most unconditionally loving person I will ever know, and she has always supported me on every level.
It's very challenging to learn something new as an adult.
It's hard to find female leads that are flawed and interesting and dynamic.
I love fashion, but maybe I love it peripherally.
In elementary and high school, I never considered acting as a profession.
I've always dreamt of having some sort of undercover job. I think it's probably the coolest thing in the world, but ultimately a very lonely life.
I'm terrified of performing live.
There's room for everything in everybody.
My first love, I'll never forget, and it's such a big part of who I am, and in so many ways, we could never be together, but that doesn't mean that it's not forever. Because it is forever.
I have a father who came from nothing and conquered the world. The last thing I'm going to do is sit here and spend his money and try to look pretty. That's not interesting to me at all.
I have a deep respect for musicians, and I feel like I would want to be so prepared and so well-educated and deep in the process before I ever release anything.
I can fall asleep anywhere.
