I have three closets in my bedroom.

I want to let my fans get to know a little about me. I'm very thankful for everything they've done for me so, of course, I'm going to let them into my world a bit. But I really am a very private person, and I love kepping my life to myself - that's how I've always been.

I may have had a crush on Zac, but we are like brother and sister, so nothing would ever happen.

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

If you have your eye set on somebody, don't beat around the bush.

I think I'd make a pretty good girlfriend.

I just lip gloss! It doesn't matter if it's $2 or $30.

Ghost stories really scare me. I have such a big imagination that after I watch a horror movie like 'The Grudge', I look in the corners of my room for the next two days.

If people don't like me for whatever I do, for being me, then that's too bad. I don't want to change to be something that I'm not for other people to like me.

I've had many nicknames over the years: V, Nessa, Nessy Poo, Nessy Bear and Van. Only my parents call me Van, though, and I hate it. I get embarrassed.

This is going to sound really funny. I have a poster of Zac Efron on my wall! I think every girl has a poster of him in their room so, why not join the club!

The sweetest thing a guy said is that I look pretty with or without makeup.

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

I'm not very experienced with boys or the whole dating thingy.

Do not just look at your boyfriend as just a boyfriend. Look at him as a friend, too.

Confidence is key. Sometimes, you need to look like you're confident even when you're not.

Touring is tough. You're almost in a haze because you don't really know where you are half the time: You're in a hotel room one moment, and the next thing you know, you're onstage performing for 60,000 people, then you're back on an airplane. It's very hectic and I couldn't do it without my family.

I don't go long without eating. I never starve myself: I grab a healthy snack.

I'd like to win an Oscar.

I've always wanted to play Maria in West Side Story. My idol is Natalie Wood, and I love the movie, so I think a modern-day twist on it would be really neat.

My advice to kids is give it your all! Give it 110% and don't give up!

My first real kiss came when I was 10, and it was in an acting class. I had to do a scene from a movie where someone gets kissed under a tree, and I did not want to do it! But my acting partner wanted me to feel comfortable, so he bought a picnic basket with all these snacks. He made such an effort - and it was cute.

I have three closets in my bedroom.

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

I'm really an outdoorsy girl. People think I can't go anywhere without getting all primped up, but I love to go camping, and I'm totally fine with not doing my hair or makeup, not taking a shower and just hiking.

The second I met Zac, I thought he was a really cool guy. It's hard not to have chemistry with someone who is so attractive.

I've always had problems with guys!

So many people try to grow up too fast, and it's not fun! You should stay a kid as long as possible!

Right now, I do not like kids at all. I mean, I love my fans and everything, but when you have kids following you around all day, it's like, "Ugh, kids!" Maybe that will change when I get older.

Lipgloss is my calling!

The Lion King always makes me cry, especially when Simba's father gets trampled.

Guys act strange around me. I swear I don't know why!

I love funky styles. Not preppy or rock, just funky!

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 like friends who are honest and loyal. They also shouldn't be afraid to be a kid. I like having fun.

A good amount of the guys wanted to date me. Even older guys looking at me. It took some getting used to.

Exercise is amazing, from the inside out. I feel so alive and have more energy.

Good boys are nice - don't go for the bad ones!

I am human like everyone else. I am aware that there are people who look up to me. When mistakes are made, they aren't intentional, and I constantly push myself to be a better person.

I did ask Matt Damon for his autograph - and I got a picture, too!

I do always have a wall up. But I feel by doing it, I keep myself safe.

I don't like being stagnant. I want to continue to grow and just be better at what I do, and the only way to do that is to keep stepping outside of your comfort zone.

I feel like I've been fortunate enough that I've gotten to meet and work with some really passionate people.

I feel like a lot of people think of Hollywood as being fake, but it's only perceived that way because it takes 10 people to make someone look the way that they do. In reality, they're there because they are doing what they're passionate about.

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

I had a gypsy upbringing, so I moved around all over the place and can't remember a street I grew up on.

I had my first real kiss at Magic Mountain on a park bench. Not the most romantic thing ever.

I have a toy poodle, Shadow. She's a little whippersnapper! And I love little monkeys.
