I was of the type who gets bullied rather than the one who does the bullying, which I'm glad about. I'd rather be that than a bully.

You can bullied as a young model, but there was a point where I found my voice, effectively.

I'm lucky that I've never been bullied personally. There are always going to be kids who are mean and say stuff, but the people that matter to you - the people you love, like your parents, your siblings, and your friends - those are the people you should listen to.

My father was not a bully. I almost never heard him raise his voice to anybody.

The whole bullying issue has really struck a nerve with me. It affects so many different types of people at a vital time in their lives.

I have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to bullies.

I had my bully, and it was excruciating. Not only the bully, but the intimidation I felt.

Children should always be brave and do something about bullying. It's not okay to stand by and let it happen. Bullies thrive off secrecy. Children should tell someone if they see someone being bullied.

People talk about bullying, but you can be your own bully in some ways. You can be the person who is standing in the way of your success, and that was the case for me.

I wouldn't say I was bullied per se, but I did get a lot of unwanted attention because I was musical and stood out. In school you don't want to stand out; you want to blend in.
