Even if I'm hormonal and I feel like I've got a couple pounds of water weight, I will never starve myself, I will never, ever go on a diet.
I was very sexual from a very young age.
My sexuality is a part of me that I really like. But it's not the totality of me.
It sounds so trite, but my private life is mine.
When you have the paparazzi hiding in the bushes outside your home, the only thing you can control is how you respond publicly.
Supermodels are over, and the new picture girl has become the television actress.
If you've looked at all the glamour magazines lately, all the covers are actresses. If they are on those covers, they are going to try to emulate models. That's just the way it is.
We must be able to inspire. That's my goal in acting.

I really never stopped thinking about Ellen, because I just haven't felt that kind of energy with anyone in my life.
I love being able to wear dresses and clothes that make me feel feminine and beautiful, and I love the fact that I don't have to all the time; I can wear a tank and jeans.
I have to be asked, I guess, but I love the idea of marriage. I think it's beautiful. I'm such a romantic, and I always have been.
If I was 14 and knew some gay people, I wouldn't nearly have had the struggle I had. Our world is definitely changing.
