I wanted to be a Disney Channel star! I wanted to be Hannah Montana.

'Hannah Montana' gets no disrespect from me because it's certainly done me a lot of favors.

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 go to the movies, and I watch MTV and the Disney Channel. I admit I like 'Hannah Montana.'

I remember being about eight and watching 'Pollyanna' with Hayley Mills. I looked at my mum and said, 'Mum, I want to be Pollyanna.' She said, 'You're going to have to make yourself cry if you want to be an actress.' So I turned my head away, and when I turned it back I was in floods of tears.

I remember at the premiere of my second movie I started crying. I thought, I'm so bad that I either have to stop this and do something else or learn what I'm doing.

I can remember crying on the set of Beverly Hills 90210 after being released from the show a few years ago.

I was eight years old when Miley Cyrus made her debut on Disney Channel's 'Hannah Montana' and beginning my senior year of high school when she delivered the VMAs performance that single-handedly butchered the teddy-bear industry.

I have been a depressed kid. I wanted to lead a quiet life, never wanted to be an actor.
