I just love carbs. And when I'm on vacation I definitely allow myself carbs, so it's always funny when people are like, 'Oh my gosh, you look great in your bikini.' I'm like, 'If you only knew what I had for breakfast!'

I don't drink, and I don't smoke. It's a personal preference. My mom has never drunk or smoked. I look up to my mom.

There are so many emoticons these days, I'm kind of old fashioned.

I love Kelly Clarkson.

I'm not trying to run away from my fans at all. I want them to grow with me.

I'm a strong person. I'm also very sassy and a little bit angsty sometimes.

Don't let anyone, or any rejection, keep you from what you want.

Just because I live in L.A .and I live in Hollywood doesn't mean I have to have a Hollywood life.

I'm actually most comfortable when I'm in a bikini, running around on the beach, like, no makeup. It's really free-feeling, whereas I'm always having to get dressed up and putting makeup on.

I realized just how much exercise and eating right make a difference in how you feel now and when you get older.

You put your heart and soul into something and it makes you a little bit vulnerable.

I love 'Sons of Anarchy.' I was so excited to be able to be on this show, just because I personally watch it. Of course, I come from Disney, and I have a lot of young fans, but I do have fans who have grown with me as well.

I don't go clubing. So, I don't smoke or drink.

I can't watch scary movies right now, because living on my own, it kind of freaks me out.

I'm always surrounded by good-looking guys, like Zac Efron, so I have to be with someone who's not going to get jealous about any of that, or when I'm kissing somebody in a scene.

I loved performing in the 'High School Musical' movies - that didn't seem like work - but the gym felt like torture!

I'm in love with 'Bravo.' Me and my girlfriends love 'Bravo-ing,' which doesn't necessarily mean watching 'Bravo.' It's when you're a bum and you're on your couch watching reality shows.

I love pancakes, and I actually do love healthy stuff. Like, I love gluten-free or whole-wheat pancakes. Breakfast is my favorite meal.

I've had a normal life, but I have struggled to get here. It hasn't been handed to me and it hasn't been easy.

In high school, it was all about popularity, being with the boyfriend and all the girls thinking he's cute.
