The average person tells a few white lies.
Humor is a part of spirituality.
I still have in me the same awareness when I was 12 and chubby and a girl was spitting in my face. I'm the same person.
I'm wary about this thing about being in the generation of social networking where people are like, 'I am my musical taste.' I am not just a collection of music. Or a collection of movies. I think that's a thing that people romanticize: 'Oh my God, she likes this band so she is a dream.'
I started out doing musicals.
I just sort of follow my bliss, so to speak, and then I see where that takes me.
No, I've been singing forever. I started out doing musicals. I think that was part of the reason why they gave me the part, because I sang.
I gravitate towards happy music. I love the Beach Boys.
I can't even remember the first time I started singing.
I'm the worst at picking what movies are going to do well. I have no idea. I'm really surprised if a movie I like does well.
You can't expect to make no effort. You still have to make the effort and be kind and understanding.
If I'm trying to please every craze fan, then I can't. Of course, we all want to please the fans.
It's a lot harder to do an ensemble because your energy is going in so many different places, and you have to cover everybody. You have to sort of split your attention.
Certain aspects of my personality are always going to come out on-screen. I guess that's just me - if they say I'm quirky, I'm quirky. It's better than being boring.
I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.
I grew up believing my sister was from the planet Neptune and had been sent down to Earth to kill me.
I wasn't really the most charming person, socially - it took me a long time to develop my people skills - but the one place I was always comfortable was onstage, acting or singing.
I think my knowledge of music theory is rooted in jazz theory, and a lot of the writers of standards - Rodgers and Hart, and Gershwin.
I think it's better to have your personal life and your work life separate. That way they don't corrupt each other, so to speak.
I love to cook. But I have some food allergies, so I have to contend with those.
