humble fighting mma
Fighting's given me confidence but it's also broken me down and kept me humble.
growing-up school watches
I didn't really watch action films growing up! I grew up on stuff like 'Anne of Green Gables' - that was more when I was in elementary school. It was all I ever watched.
sweat guy want
The guys I date always want to test my strength and wrestle around. By the end, they're drenched in sweat.
fun people roles
It [preparing for a role] is just like studying for a test and making the test easy; it makes it a lot of fun, especially when people enjoy it.
mom looks my-mom
My mom used to tell me: 'It's not what you weigh; it's what you look like.
fighting underdog knows
I know I'm always rooting for the underdog in a fight, and I love to be constantly surprised.
athlete cheesy want
I definitely don't want to be one of those athletes who turns into a cheesy actress.
drama levels want
There's so much I want to do. I love emotions, I love drama, I love comedy and I also want to take action up to another level, I love comics.
fighting thinking people
I don't get paid what people think I get paid for fighting.
morning wake-up surprise
I wake up every morning and I surprise myself. I wake up to a new me.
critics
Everybody is their own critic.
fighting vulnerable type
Fighting is very physical and extreme and you're very vulnerable. It's a very mental type of thing.
fun pyramids people
On 'American Gladiators,' I got to pummel a lot of people off a pyramid with a giant Q-tip. It was so much fun to wrestle people with no risk of getting knocked out or choked out.
first-love love-is mma
My first love is MMA... it's something that I did because it made me feel good.
