“With 'Carrie,' I did, like, seven auditions. I'd never done a movie, so they wanted to make sure I wasn't going to ruin it. I don't blame them.”
“You can be really weird, and people will still accept you if you're in movies. I'm not actually weird, but if I feel like being weird, then I can do it, and they accept it because you're an actor.”
“I want to dunk on Kevin Hart.”
“I don't just act, and that's really important to me. I don't want to just be an actor forever.”
“There are so many things to be lucky for. Lucky to be healthy, lucky to be, like, beautiful. Lucky to be living in America.”
“I just make whatever music I want. It's my obsession, and it's very fulfilling.”
“I'm starting to get a following on Twitter. That's a really awesome power to have. It gives me the opportunity to make any kind of art I want.”
“I love when a girl is like, 'I can't hang out. I have to go to class.' And I go pick her up, and she's all sweaty in a leotard with her hair in a bun. That's the hottest thing ever.”
“I want to encourage people. One of the things I do encourage people is that - that Internet is a place where we should share our ideas and be positive, not negative.”
“My dad photographed a lot of beautiful dancers. My mom was a dancer.”
“I would like to do more independent films.”
“I think my parents raised me well. And I'm pretty straight edge. All my friends make fun of me for being straight edge.”
“My thing with fans is, it's always about being really good to them and taking the time to take every picture. If there are 300 people, you should take 300 pictures - you shouldn't take 250 because then fifty people will go home sad. Why would you do that?”
“When girls scream my name and start crying, I blush like crazy.”
“You can't be a good actor if you get too affected by fame. Because then you're not real, and you're not really wanting more. You look at a lot of actors who, before they were famous, did a lot of amazing work, and once they got too big, it just got off.”
“My mom is very romantic. As is my dad. They appreciate real romance.”
“Sometimes I'll write a tweet that I'll just be like, 'Why do I have to say this to all of these people?' It's like writing a Facebook status: it's the same. I view tweeting as like writing a Facebook status. Remember when we used to write statuses?”
“There's going to come a time when maybe I have kids and a wife.”
“I never felt fanboyish about acting, about actors, about movies. I'm a fanboy with music.”
“If I messed up at the Oscars, I wouldn't be invited back.”
