My mother told me that when I was born a wave of feeling came over her. She just knew that I was destined to be an actress.
I want to play an action hero. I'm ready for roles that totally aren't me.
I try not to do scenes a certain way, because then I become conscious of it, and it dosen't come off as realistic. I try to make it so that I'm not really aware of what I'm doing.
I have gotten so many tickets. I hope I don't get my license revoked.
The hardest job an actor can do is all this pretend, all this screaming and being scared for your life.
I was a very extrovert kid. It felt normal to me to act. I always went to regular schools. I've never been catty or a prima donna, so I never had problems. I always had my seat at the cafeteria when I came back from acting.
I've always been someone who is pretty hard on herself. But I've lightened up a lot.
When you spend your entire life as a child actress, being told where to go and where to stand, you're performing constantly for people. It definitely breeds the kind of person who's dependent on other people's approval.
I just want to be a good friend to people, that's all.
I can't wait to have kids one day. I want to have kids and a farm with lots of animals on a lake.
I feel like I could never walk around a film half-naked. I definitely wouldn't want to see that.
I'm not someone who feels the pressure of someone else's expectations. That's a very young way to feel.
It's weird doing red carpets; it's uncomfortable. But you can have a sense of humor about it.
When I was younger, I always did movies that teenagers would watch, not adults. I did 'Crazy/Beautiful' or comedies like 'Bring It On.'
You can never get enough of 'Jeopardy.'
When I was little, I put on plays for my family at Sunday dinner, and I would direct them and have all my cousins, my brother, and my best friends in it. I was a very imaginative and theatrical child and wasn't afraid of being in front of a camera. It was like make-believe to me.
I would always rather do a mediocre script with a great filmmaker than a great script with a mediocre filmmaker.
I'm not a very 'this is planned out' person when I get to set. 'This is how I'm going to do it' - I'm never like that.
I'm the kind of person who buys a new thing, wears it so much and then is totally sick of it.
When you have a beanpole body, everything looks cute. Like Alexa Chung. I like her style, but she's really tall and skinny, so everything looks good on her.
