I know that you have to be reserved about certain things in your life.
I did all the musicals in my high school; I was in a pop group signed to Cash Money Records in college. Music has always been a really big part of my life.
Id rather be with Dracula than the Wolfman.
I've always done the safest thing, which is to assume that it's going to feel like that, to assume that you're going to feel like a freshman in a group of seniors - if you expect the worst, then it's never going to be that bad.
I grew up playing classical piano and percussion.
Today's imaginary band name: The Significan't.
I am definitely not the normal girl. I'm not some skinny blond, you know? I chose strong over skinny. So, I am honored that people think I'm sexy. I'm just really happy people accept me as I am and I don't have to change.
I am a big gamer. I am kind of in the beginning stages of creating a graphic novel entity that would encompass a game and a movie. I would die happy if I could be a voice in a game that I would actually play and create easter eggs with the team. That's my dream.
I always talk about if you want to be an artist, you have to be authentic because people can tell bullshit a mile away. There is nothing wrong with creating a character, standing behind that character, and that being an authentic performance piece, because that's a piece of art as well. But if you want to be an artist in any form, you have to know to come with it.
I'm a musician - music will never go away - but my focus is acting, and I started late so I have to play catch-up. So that means I have to work twice as hard in this game. But it will never stop, I think I always feel I have to work twice as hard.
I've always just done things that come naturally, and that's always been surrounding myself with artists that I respect and that are way better at what they do than at what I do. I've worked my ass off to earn the right to get a shot.
You want to do things that you watched when you grew up. I grew up on The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins and Singin' in the Rain. I watched those, over and over again, so of course, I want to do musicals.
I want to do a musical so bad. I don't care what it is. I'm not picky. I just want to do a musical. I'm shameless, but it's true.
Music informs my work so intensely. The better actor I become, the better pianist I become, and vice versa.
Music has always been a part of my life. I make music all the time.
I've always done a few things at once. I've always been a musician and an actor, at the same time.
If you look at everything I've done, each character is so wildly different from each other, and that's what "The L Word" afforded me the opportunity to do. I want to continue to play characters that are not like me at all, and transform.
People don't recognize me from gig to gig. They have no idea. But, that's really what I strive to do. I strive to stip myself down completely and build another human and become them.
I think that you really get what you recognize is in the universe.
I think there's an innate sexuality that is attached to vampires and werewolves. It's passionate and sexual, undeniably so.
I love big ensemble shows where there are a lot of things going on and you have to really pay attention because there's a lot of nuanced work and universal themes are being explored.
Pilot season is always crazy because you audition for a million things, and really, in the end, it's not up to you.
