I'm shooting a commercial for safe sex. How ironic. Because I don't have that.
I do whatever my heart tells me to do.
As long as I'm not hurting anybody, I don't think that anything I do is wrong.
When people talk about someone you have preconceived judgments.
I mean, the media and bloggers may say otherwise, but in reality I have a lot of fans because I'm the only celebrity that actually takes time out to call them and talk to them. I don't think a lot of celebrities do that.
This is so cliche, but my beauty icon would have to be Angelina Jolie. She looks like she wears natural makeup, but she's still beautiful.
When somebody says something bad about you, they feel bad about themselves in some way.
You don't want to be in a relationship with someone who's scared of you.
When I started on MySpace, people wanted to support me, but once I rose to fame with the MTV show, they felt like I had abandoned them for some reason, that I was too famous to talk to them anymore.
I knew out of high school I didn't want to go to college. I knew what whatever I did wouldn't have anything to do with college.
I've found my calling with Twitter. It's all about the amount of interaction you do, and the traffic you move, and I'm really good at that. I keep going and going and going, and no one can believe that I can keep it up.
I just sit around at home, and I have nothing to do, so I am on the Internet all the time.
I think nerdy stuff is sexy. I like to watch the History Channel and learn about the universe, quantum physics and stuff like that.
It is because of me — I definitely think [my show] has helped the movement. Before it came out, everyone was still a little apprehensive about [same sex relationships]. Then they realized, 'Wow, everyone is really into this stuff, and it is fine.' The next thing you know, [gay marriage] is legal.
