Going out is the typical thing when you turn 18, but it's not really much fun when you have a recognisable face.
I'd much rather be liked because people realize that I'm standing up for myself.
I like shocking people just because, like, I can wear a dress, too. Not even for people to go, 'Oh she's grown up,' but to show people that I'm actually a girl.
I'm used to being part of 'Game of Thrones' and going into something where you're a small part of something else. You don't want to hold anything up because they've got such a well-oiled machine going.
Doing the sword fighting is like picking up a dance routine... I think dancing really helps with the picking up of it.
No one teaches you how to be a famous person; no one teaches you how to be a role model. It's something you have to do on your own.
I'm used to being a small part of a massive production.
I'd never want to be trapped. I never like to stay in one place too long. I always flit around, I never settle anywhere. So being married would be being trapped.
You hear horror stories about scary mothers who just want their kids to be famous. I could be waitressing in a restaurant, and my mum would be happy as long as I was happy.
I've never really done acting before, 'cause dancing was my first love. And then, I sort of fell into it from a talent competition and never really looked back.
You know sometimes when you're in a really bad mood and you're not sure why? That's how I get sometimes.
I have a Facebook page for me and my friends and a Twitter page.
I get a lot of fan mail and stuff, and usually it's for me to sign stuff.
If you've got cool nails, you wake up and you're like, 'Oh, I'm happy now.'
