I would have been miserable in college. I always hated school.

My dad has always been really helpful. He taught me that talent is a bonus, but persistence is what wins out.

I went to a strict elementary school with nuns, and uniforms that I'm pretty sure were made out of sandpaper. It was an academic, sports-oriented place. I liked to read, and wanted to act, and didn't try out for volleyball. I was weird. The other girls would dip my hair in ink and stuff.

I'm a little bit of a weirdo - I'm kind of a loner, I didn't go to college, I spend a lot of my time reading. I've been working since I was 17, so that's sort of been my life.

I don't know if I would call myself a religious human.

I have a ship's bed, which totally plays to my obsession of, if I were not an actress, I would be a pirate.
