“I have been doing this since I was 10 years old. It wasn’t like I was an overnight hit. I think when that happens to some actors – they just don’t know what to do with themselves. You don’t know how to cope with friends and all of a sudden not being able to go out. It’s such a shock to your system.”

“After I graduated high school and came out to do ‘Buffy,’ I was enrolled at my mom’s university, and I was going to go get a real job. I never thought of acting and never really wanted to be an actor.”
