Some people are very dictatorial and it's not a good feeling, and it kind of inhibits you, because you feel like you have more to offer than what they're trying to squeeze you into, some kind of box or something like that.
Literally, I just love food and I like going to dinner with big groups of people so you can try everything.
When I run into disappointment - say, for example, not getting a role I'd hoped for - I just try not to take it personally.
Rejection just motivates me to keep trying and to try to do better.
I've been writing since I was 10 or 11. I started with poetry because that was the easiest thing. It just kind of came naturally. I think at that time West Coast hip hop was huge; all these kids around me were like, 'I want to be a rapper.' But I'm a white girl, not going to be a rapper.
Promoting education is an effort that is close to my heart. Illiteracy contributes to poverty; encouraging children to pick up a book is fundamental.
Music is a passion of mine, so I also want to continue along that path, creating with my friends.
I must confess, I'm not the best cook. I make a mean salsa, as I like hot sauce and, you know, tacos, because I'm a California kid, and that's about it.
I don't think any human being/artist is 100% emotionally stable, based on the human condition and our emotions that relate to it.
'The Girlfriend Experience' was definitely the break-out. When it came out, I started getting other opportunities.
As a woman, and as somebody in the public eye, we always have to be ready for the red carpet and have the nicest outfit, work with the best makeup artist. While all that's nice, we're also human beings.
If I only concentrated on one thing, I would limit myself in life.
I'm not very good at parties. I'm a wallflower.
My goals are to continue acting and also to produce some independent films in the next few years. Music is a passion of mine, so I also want to continue along that path, creating with my friends.
