| Quotes: |
I do intelligent roles. I don't want to be labeled as doing silly movies. I'm more mature than kids my age because I'm constantly surrounded by adults.
<br />
<hr>
I love to draw people's faces. I do that all the time.
<br />
<hr>
I like playing dark, offbeat, quirky characters.
<br />
<hr>
It kind of irritates me that I'm seen as this pretty face. People also say I'm too thin. The truth is pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It comes with all these stigmas. |
