Personal Quotes
When I first got to Hollywood. I was just walking around, taking pictures of the palm trees and stuff like that. And this guy walked up to me and asked if I'd seen any stars and I said, "No, it's been kind of cloudy today."
I had my first date in 1999 when I was 16 years old. I was so excited! I walked into the living room to watch out the window for him and my dad was cleaning his shotguns!!!! My mom yelled at him for a while and, uh, the guy never asked me out again...
I like to dance around the house when I'm getting ready. It gets my day going.
Sometimes a girl's gotta have some chocolate!
I'm a horror-movie fan: Halloween (1978), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Friday the 13th (1980/I)--I freak myself out sometimes when I'm home alone.
It drives me crazy when I have people over and they try to help clean up. I'm like, 'No, I've got it!' I may not be able to control every aspect of my life, but I can control what color pots are lined up where.
