"Puberty was definitely difficult for me."
"You always worry that everybody is secretly talking about you behind your back, everybody is secretly making fun of your voice, your figure, the way that you are during puberty, but it turned out, in real life, everybody was. On movie sets, they were all talking about these things, because they had to."
"I remember my friends and I looking forward to puberty because it seemed exciting at first."
"I can't take much pride in my childhood acting. It feels like it happened in another lifetime, and even then, it felt like a hobby."
"Very sad, very upset, very glad I did not have to hear about this though Twitter. Probably going to be taking some time off it for a while."
