Everyone needs to be able to have their own space in which to be themselves.
I don't get embarrassed easily, and I do silly things all the time!
I thoroughly enjoy sitcoms - the schedule that comes with them and the camaraderie you feel with a certain group of people when you've been working together for a long time.
Chuck Lorre and everyone else on 'Mom' did such a great job of balancing that line that rides tragedy and comedy. They make you cry, and then they make you crack up about it.
What's great about having the live audience is you know immediately if you're funny or not. That always helped when we were doing 'Hannah Montana;' it teaches you if something worked or didn't.
I did an ABC Family movie called 'Cyberbully' a couple years ago, and it was unlike any movie I'd ever done before. I remember just reading the script and thinking, 'OK, she cries in every scene.'
Disney Channel is celebrities coated in sugar. Everything is really happy; everything is really bright.
Actors pull from their own experiences to bring reality to the characters. I wouldn't want to play someone who's a lot like me. There would be no turning it on or off.
Balancing school, acting, and a social life can be difficult.
