I liked the fact that I didn't have to worry about being brought up for cheating, but it was kind of a pain to turn it into the Web site.
In this business, you can be at the top of the world and at the bottom of the barrel, and you're grape juice. I've been at both ends. It can make you become what you really are.
I went to the University of Georgia for a year before I left, and then I went to live with Eileen Ford in New York for the modeling agency. I thank god I could do that because all the other kids were getting jobs doing other things, and when I got to New York, I was very blessed. I didn't have to stop and be a waitress.

I just want to thank everybody I've ever met in my entire life.
I love to be nervous before a scene.
