I love my snaggle fangs. They give me character and character is sexy.
I try not to do scenes a certain way, because then I become conscious of it, and it dosen’t come off as realistic. I try to make it so that I’m not really aware of what I’m doing.
I don’t really relate to myself as The Girl in the Magazine. Which is dangerous for me, too, sometimes, because I don’t think all the time, ‘Well, look to see if people are following me home.’ Sometimes I’m a little bit more free than maybe I should be.
I know kids are supposed to go through these awkward stages, but I just never even thought about that. I was too busy worrying about getting my education while I was working.
I really want to do a film in another language. My dad’s from Germany, so it’d be really cool to do a film in German. I’m not quite fluent, but I can get there. And my accent’s pretty good. I wouldn’t feel too out of my element.
I think the best thing about my job is that I have my life documented, which not many people get to have. They have a photo here and there and maybe some video footage from a birthday. My kids will be able to see me growing up.
I want to play an action hero. I’m ready for roles that totally aren’t me.
I used to feel like I had to be the best at what I did, but I realized I don’t have to be the best. It’s so freeing. I’ve never been this happy.
I’m not a very ‘this is planned out’ person when I get to set. ‘This is how I’m going to do it’ – I’m never like that.
When you have a beanpole body, everything looks cute. Like Alexa Chung. I like her style, but she’s really tall and skinny, so everything looks good on her.
I just want to be a good friend to people, that’s all.
I’m a good assistant. That’s why I don’t have an assistant, because I’m so on it that no one can be as on it as me. I know that.
I’m never going to say anything about who I’m dating unless I’m married or engaged.
When I go away to do a movie, I bring the blanket I’ve had since I was a little girl. It helps me sleep. I also always bring my laptop so I can E-mail friends. And I bring my dog, Beauty, wherever I can.
I’ve never had a teenage rebellion; I’m not that type of person. I always work out my problems in a conscientious way.
If I’d trusted myself and listened to myself all the times that I ignored myself, I would have been fine. But everyone has to learn their lesson, and now I’ve got it.
I would love to work with Quentin Tarantino – he’s my number one. My ultimate. I would love to work with Paul Thomas Anderson, Alexander Payne – Pedro Almodovar wouldn’t be too shabby. There are so many good directors, but those are some of my favorites.
Most people ask me questions based on a previous interview. That’s not an interview. It’s like they’re just saying my quotes back to me.
My grandmother lives with my mother in a gorgeous house in the San Fernando Valley. I am afforded these luxuries, and I’m very young.
My mother told me that when I was born a wave of feeling came over her. She just knew that I was destined to be an actress.
So many teen films are overproduced and people are going to burnout on the subject.
