Everybody on our cast is very musically talented, except for me.
My mom is a huge woman of worth for me because she's been my idol my whole life. My mom was someone who juggled everything. She had her own career, she raised five kids, she was Superwoman... and she was never satisfied doing just one thing because... she probably just had too much energy.
I grew up with the mindset that when you get home from work, you go to dinner and watch a movie. I don't want to be going to a club and taking off my panties.
I'd rather be by myself than be spending any time or energy on somebody that I didn't feel sure about.
I was raised in California, so this whole New York winter thing is completely new for me. I've already justified buying seven coats!
I can't believe we're being paid to live in New York.
I was always observing my siblings and hearing stories about their lives that turned out to be helpful as an actress.
Creating something I can use is the best stress reliever.
Actually, I'm happiest in Williams-Sonoma in New York. That's a wonderful cooking store.
I've never been a big fan of gossip. Being a victim of it, I knew how much it hurt.
There are days when I will be like, 'Oh my goodness, I am not happy with the way I look because I cannot fit into any of my clothes.' So I eat quinoa that week, and then I feel good.
I wear a lot more glitter around the holidays, so I'm always wearing different glitter nail polish or fun metallic eye shadow. It's the holidays - everything is more twinkly and celebratory.
Family is at the heart of everything I do.
Design, whether it's on your body or in your home, is the same thing. It's mixing different colors, different textures, and unexpected patterns - elements that you wouldn't often put together in an interesting way.
