I became stereotyped.

I do try and stay away from the stereotype and getting typecast.

I know there is a stereotype that I am naive, but I know what I want, and I know what I'm doing to get there.

I think I'm going to be stereotyped forever, but I'm not scared of being stereotyped.

The whole idea of a stereotype is to simplify. Instead of going through the problem of all this great diversity - that it's this or maybe that - you have just one large statement; it is this.

Stereotypes happen. I try not to embrace them or avoid them.

It was an ongoing struggle to say no, I don't want to be a part of the perpetuation of this stereotype.

I really fought to make my character not a stereotype. I play a soap star with dyed blonde hair.
