"I'm happy that I was able to experience a normal life besides show business, because it gives you something to draw from."
"My agent didn't want me on Disney because I'm older. But honestly, I'm not ready for older roles yet, or even the things older girls do. I am still young."
"I love Christmas, not just because of the presents but because of all the decorations and lights and the warmth of the season."
"I loved my long brown curls, but most mean girls look like this, don't they?...The blond thing...it's the stereotype of a popular mean girl."
"I feel like people expect a lot out of girls, like you're supposed to know who you are and what you want out of life right now. Some girls know. I did. But lots of people don't know."
