Honestly, I am a shy person.
I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 17. There were boys at school that I would find out later had a crush on me but I was too shy to talk to them.
Martha Stewart's my idol.
I love to have my hair down; I love to have my hair full... there's something romantic about it.
I'm always the person who's taking everyone else's kid and putting them on my hip, so I've kinda always been a mama.
So, it's cool that, yes, Hal Jordan is a superhero, but my character is a real-world hero in her own life.
Every relationship you have, you're learning and growing and taking something from that.
I've never gone on a date... If I've ever had a man in my life, it's because I know him well, and he really means something to me.
What do you do with your best friend? You do nothing.
I want to get involved in causes I believe in, and I know so many others that want to also get involved, but it's hard to know how. Often, it's through big organisations, and you don't know exactly where your money is going or what effect you are having.
I love being at home and cooking and baking.
I'll go to an event wearing some designer gown and tens of thousands of dollars in jewels that were lent to me for the night, and I'll walk around and meet people who I always thought were such a big deal.
People want things with meaning. I know that because I want that.
It's definitely attractive when a man can dress well.
The older I get, I guess I wear less sparkles.
My mom taught me this really great beauty tip. She used to put oil or mayonnaise on the bottom half of her hair before she would shower.
I went straight from high school to 'Gossip Girl,' and both were very structured, scheduled environments, so I never had freedom to explore and carve my own path.
Everybody on our cast is very musically talented, except for me.
Stars really are like anyone else. At the end of the day, Brad Pitt poops - as handsome as he may be - and so does Angelina Jolie.
I have a strong sense of myself. That gives me a sense of security, you know? If I define myself by things that are always changing, like the public's opinion, or what I'm wearing, or what job I'm doing, there's no stability in that.
In high school, there are so many cliques. You're never safe.
I could probably make more money if I did more commercial projects.
You can learn a lot from criticism if you can take what's constructive out of it. If you read a review that starts with, 'This person is an idiot; who do they think they are?', you're not going to learn anything from that.
I love layering things. Fall is my favorite time of the year to get dressed.
One of the very few things that I do every single day is put on fragrance. If I'm not wearing make-up, if my hair's not done, if I'm walking around in pyjamas - I still put my fragrance on. I will brush my teeth and put on my perfume.
I'm so used to being within 10 minutes of my family.
I don't know; I don't really look at pictures of me when I'm in public.
Actually, I'm happiest in Williams-Sonoma in New York. That's a wonderful cooking store.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is just perfect-looking. Whether she's walking down the street, she looks so regal and elegant all the time, and I love that.
My family is probably too involved in my life because they are my best friends, but I love that.
To be around me, you must love food, or I'm the most obnoxious person you've ever met.
There is something about New Orleans that embodies passion; I've never seen that before. There's something tangible about the essence of the city. You can taste and smell it.
When I was a child, I probably should have been medicated about my obsession with The Spice Girls. I had the Buffalo shoes, a customised Baby Spice necklace - when I say custom-made, it was made out of plastic from the local mall - and a Union Jack dress.
My dad actually makes the best cookies. My mum is great baker, too, but doesn't share them - it's tantalising! Luckily for me though, my dad shares his!
I kind of feel like I grew up at Disneyland.
In the olden days, a couple could be in every movie together, but it's just not like that anymore.
