“Long-distance relationships are hard no matter what. When you don’t have face-to-face time, it’s just different.”

My passion is doing movies, so as long as I keep doing that I will be happy.

My passion is doing movies, and as long as I keep doing that, I’ll be happy. I want to do movies, fun roles and dramatic ones. I love all of it.

I get to go to all these beautiful places, so it’s nice being able to take pictures of it.

I’m not good with catty girls. I’m too laid-back.

I have three closets in my bedroom.

That’s actually how my parents met. They were pen pals. My mom was in the Philippines and my father was in the States, and they wrote to each other. He went out to meet her, and they wed not too long after.

I try to live my life, do what I want, and just let everything else follow along.

Violence has been a part of films since the beginning of time. It’s been a form of entertainment.

My mum and I do cardio kickboxing classes together.

I try not to read the blogs or what people say about me. Because that’s what brings everybody down – no matter what you do, you’re always going to have haters.

I hope by the time I’m 30 to have a husband and maybe a baby.

Being cool is being your own self, not doing something that someone else is telling you to do.

I feel like acting is something I’ve been working towards longer. And it would be great to win a Grammy, of course, but for some reason, an Oscar speaks more to me.

I like someone who’s not afraid to be a kid!

My heart is closer to acting than singing. It’s always been that way.

I just love expanding my horizons and growing as an artist. The only way you get to do that is by doing something that scares you or takes you out of your comfort zone.

I can play a lot of different instruments adequately but nothing really well.

The fact that I am a woman does not make me a different kind of Christian, but the fact that I am a Christian makes me a different kind of woman.

People flash back to pictures of me when I was 12 and say ‘Kylie’s so different,’ but how can I look the same from 12 -18?

That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons.

The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.

I want to play every day. This year will be absolutely no different.

I like to be able to present myself in two or three different ways because I’ve never really wanted to rest on my laurels and be something that people expected.

Every day we keep telling the same stories. Over and over. We forget that our endings can be different. So can the plot. I think it’s time for some surprise endings.
