I'm a vegetarian and very much active in regards to how I feel about animal rights and protecting animals and giving animals a voice.

The only thing that I hope is that people are educated, that they're aware, that they're living a conscious lifestyle.

I keep it real normal, like I don't try to act like a celebrity, or say that just because I'm on a TV show I can do other types of TV. I take it very seriously and I respect the art of acting.
