She seems so genuine, accessible, real.

Excerpts:

"I'm a fairly guarded person and I can be pretty insecure when I first meet people.

On how things went down after her breakup:

''I was shown such enormous kindness from my friends that, as difficult as it was, I can't complain,''

''I feel like I've come out on the other side of a lot of things, not just the obvious �" what's in the press. A lot of baggage that I carried around for a long time, even before I was in the situation that I was in, has been cleared away.'' She breaks into a half smile. ''I don't know, maybe that's what people call growing up.''

On Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears

You know those girls that, like, go out? I'm just not confident enough to do that.I'm not the sort of girl that will throw on a short skirt and tease her hair up. … Truly, I am a wallflower by nature."

On her conman ex-boyfriend

‘It's funny that [the Follieri scandal] has become a part of my story because it's not something that I'd like to talk about all the time. I have to be very careful because I don't want it to define me. And I don't want to subconsciously exploit it."
