Looks like we don't have salary information. Sorry!

#	Quote
1	You can always learn something [in bad acting classes], maybe it's a technique you don't like; maybe it's a style. But you learn different things.
2	I really did graduate at 14, and I go to college in the Los Angeles area near where I live.
3	[on having a sister who is also an actress] It's wonderful. If anything, this business has brought my family together because we can sit at the dinner table and say, "Oh, my gosh, wait 'til you hear this crazy story". And my whole family always comes to sets with me, so it's something we can share, as opposed to tearing us apart.
4	I'd love to be able to multiply because then I could be in lots of different places at once. One of me could be sitting here, one of me could still be in bed and one could be vacationing in Hawaii. Just be lots of places at once.
