Some People Still See Me As A

I've Never Wanted To Be The Hottest Star. I Always Wanted To Do Good Movies.

I Have Actor Friends, But They're Not Famous. I Feel Like If You're An Actor Or - Famous, You Have To Overly Prove That You're A Normal, Cool Person.

I Think You Have To Embrace Being A Role Model Because You Are In The Public Eye, And Whether You Like It Or Not, People Are Going To Be Affected By You Positively Or Negatively, ... Public-wise, I Really Wouldnt Do Anything That Would Be Detrimental To Anybody Else Or To Myself. And To A Certain Extent, I Try To Watch Out And Try Not To Do Anything That Would Be Bad For Kids To See.

I've Grown Up With Kids Watching Me And As They're Growing Up, I'm Growing Up.

I Don't Like Being Compared To Anyone Or Being In A Class With Someone. I'm A Teen Actress And Therefore I'm Competing Against Hilary Duff. We're Different People Like Everyone Else.
