I actually started acting because I couldn't dance.
When I was younger, I started taking singing lessons and dance and acting. I just started acting first because that's how everything happened.
I actually got started in acting when I was in pre-school. I was really into dance and performing, so my mom had me in dance classes, and then I got involved in a local theater company.
Dance was something I'd just done at my youth club, and I used to teach dance when I was 14 to 19, 20 years old. I had my own dance group, and then I got more into the acting stuff, and I started doing things for TV. And then I put that on pause, because I really wanted to focus on my real passion, which is music.
As I got older, I went to school. I started doing plays, I learned about the craft of acting, and I started to love acting for different reasons. I think I started to love acting because it brought me closer to people and made me more compassionate.
I always knew I wanted to go into acting. So I dropped out of the modelling circuit and started taking acting and dance lessons.
I got the part [in Into the Forest], I started taking ballet again to try to regain my strength back. I actually love that it was changed to Crystal Pite's modern dance. And I wouldn't even really call it modern dance because it feels like it's in its own genre.
Dance was one of the things that led me to acting even though I say I fell in love with acting fairly early on and its true but around 16 and 17 I got heavily into dance but I think I just came into it too late and I was never going to be really great at it so I let it go and the dance led to more acting classes.
I started acting when I was 5 or so. I just did acting for fun, not actually to be an actor.
Coming from dance, I feel acting is - I'm not going to say easy, because it's not. But the dance world is more hard-core.
I was told that I was good in my dance movement classes and that I should concentrate on dance because it would enhance my ability to get acting work.
I became disillusioned with dance when I was 16 and started focusing on acting.
I started singing before I started tweeting, actually. It was always a passion... I started singing, and then I got into acting. Singing is something I love to do. I feel very confident doing it.
When I was 16, my friends and I were all starting to think about what we were going to do with our lives, and I started picturing myself majoring in dance at college traveling around with a contemporary dance company, and it didn't excite me as I thought it would all those years. I was just thinking about the things that I loved most about dance, which was entertaining and telling a story, and that's when I kind of opened my eyes again to acting.
I started out fighting before I was acting, actually, then got hurt and got into the acting.
I was able to actually combine dance and acting, which was a dream come true.
I started writing when I started acting professionally because, with acting, there's so much time when you're not working, and there's so much rejection and so little you have control of. Writing is something that you can do, and no one can tell you not to.
