"I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic. I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes. The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I'm a big shoe girl."
"When I died my hair red the first time, I felt as if it was what nature intended. I have been accused of being a bit of a spitfire, so in that way, I absolutely live up to the stereotype. The red hair suits my personality. I was a terrible blonde!"
"I come from musical theater, and a lot of musical theater is about accepting fantasy. I think it is more about just being open and accepting."
"Find out who you are & embrace it. It's so much easier to face criticism when you are comfortable in your own skin."
"That's always been my philosophy: I try to just be as straightforward as possible, and then I don't really have to question what I said or regret anything."
