1. "I've been single for a little while partly because I've been working so much and partly because I don't want to settle. A lot of people run around and are real crazy in Hollywood, but I want to wait for it to be the right thing."
2. "The big scandal was when I was in seventh grade and I modeled a bathing suit. Everybody freaked out!"
