I'm, like, super-clumsy and weird and funny and dorky.

The minute you feel secure about yourself and own the fact your dreams are honest true, other things fix themselves.

My style is dependent on my moods, so I feel like it's all over the place.

Despite my mother saying I have been destined to be an actress my whole life, I remember being the kid who grew up not knowing what I wanted to do with my life.

Being on a television show and having so many fans is something that I've never experienced before, and it's really neat when they come up to you and are like, 'That storyline is amazing and really spoke to me in my life,' and it's really cool. I really enjoy it.
