Originally I studied as a musician, a classical pianist. That was my career before I took up acting in my late 20s.

I got my first acting role because I was a singer.

The first thing I wanted to be was an actor, even before I wanted to be a singer, before I discovered I could sing.

My first inspiration for acting came from the first episode of 'Hannah Montana.' That's when I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actress.

I was in the movies. I danced, I sang, I learned to work in front of a camera. It was like being in a repertory company.

I didn't start acting until I was in college, which was in the 70's.

I didn't start out to be a movie star. I started out to be an actor.

I always knew I wanted to work in entertainment, but I actually really wanted to be a singer more than an actress.
