I Don't Let [my Friends] Visit Me

"ann Jumped Over Fence." So I Guess In A Way It Helped Me Progress In School, Too, Because I Was Reading So Much And Memorizing So Much. But They Kept Me Very Shielded From Everything That Was Going On In The The Amityville Horror. I Didn't Know Anything, Basically, About The Film. I Just Knew That It Was A Scary Film. I Wasn't Allowed To Watch It. I Can Watch It Now, I'm Just Too Scared.

A Lot Of People Are Like, 'so You Want To Be Famous.' And I'm Like, 'no, I Want To Be Good At My Craft. I Don't Care About Fame, I Don't Care If I Even Ever Make It. As Long As People Know What I Am As An Actress In This Business, I'm Set For My Career Right Now.
