| Quotes: |
I love low-rise, boot-cut, perfect fitting jeans.
<br />
<hr>
I collect jeans. I don't care how expensive they are.
<br />
<hr>
Jeans are just so sexy, there's something about them that turns me on, you know?
<br />
<hr>
[on plans for the future] If I came out with a club hit, if I were singing duets with Jesse McCartney, I think people would get the wrong idea. I'm not interested in fashion design. I'm an actress, and that's all I want to focus on. For me, that's just more fulfilling.
<br />
<hr>
[on Mamma Mia! (2008)] I had never seen the stage show. When I first heard about the audition, I was like, "Damn, I'm not Greek!". I thought it was about this big Greek family. |
