I wasn't the most popular girl in school by any means.

I wasn't the most popular kid in school.

Being an actress is similar to trying to fit in with the popular kids in high school. You're expected to drive the right car, wear the right clothes and say the right things.

I would point out that I'm an actress for a reason! If I were popular in high school, I would have considered another career because I wouldn't have been alone in my room, making up other characters for myself. I definitely had growing pains. The popular kids didn't want anything to do with the girl who was starting the drama club.

I became an actress because I'm lazy. I wouldn't apply myself at school.

People would be surprised to know that I've gone to regular school my whole life, and I don't have one friend who is an actor!

Being popular isn't everything; being true to yourself is!

I was never an actress in high school. I didn't start acting until I was in my twenties. I was just a funny cheerleader. I hadn't even seen a show until I was in my twenties, so I was very late getting into the business.

I wasn't hugely popular at school. In fact, I was bullied at school.

I didn't grow up wanting to be an actor, and I didn't go to acting school.
