I think what has helped me is that I've never thought of myself as a child star. If you think of yourself like that, you might have problems!

Charlie Sheen gave me a signed headshot. I think it said, 'Keep it real.' But 'real' was spelled 'reel,' like a film reel.

I think that role model is kind of a weird thing because obviously you are, but I try to make good choices and good decisions for myself for me to have a good life. If that inspires someone else, that is great, but I think you should do good for yourself and your own happiness.

Acting is what I love to do. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I don't think of it as work. It's really fun for me.

I think I was a Japanese schoolgirl in another life. That's how much I love Hello Kitty.

I think you learn something from everybody that you've worked with. I really learned how to behave on set through the people that I worked with, like the importance of being on time and the importance of being professional. I don't bring my cell phone on set; I leave it in my trailer.
