I think the best advice came from Drew Barrymore, about always finding love in everything you do and keeping a positive attitude and being thankful.Collection: Thankful
Everyone suffers some injustice in life, and what better motivation than to help others not suffer in the same way.
I'd like to help other kids with dyslexia, because I'm dyslexic. It was very hard, and I know that what I went through, other kids are going through.
My father is Cuban. Spanish was my first language, but I don't speak it that much anymore because I had dyslexia, and in school they work with you only in English. But I'm proud to be Latina, and most people don't know I am.
I do have many of the same friends I grew up with. Most I've known since we were three or four years old! I have made new friends as well.
I know that some girls look up to me for certain things, like dyslexia, and that way I know that they like me for me, so it adds no pressure.
I don't have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm.
Music is a big part of my life. I listen to different genres, and I choose the music that will inspire the next part of my story.
My secret is one the world needs to know - nearly a billion people a year die from unsafe drinking water.
You always just have to be the best that you can be. And if you know that in your heart, then that's all that matters.
I don't want to be that girl who has that same style all the time where the music always sounds exactly the same, and you always know it's her.
I love pointy nails! A cute way to add a pop of color to your nails is to make a V-shape at the ends of them in a pastel color.
I practice reading all the time. I read everything and having so many scripts to read, which really helps out as well.
I have suffered from bullying in many ways, from bullying in school due to my disability in reading, to digital abuse that I deal with on a daily basis. I'd like to tell the kids that are being bullied that no one should have to deal with the abuse, ever!
Start going to bed earlier! It is a tough adjustment when you have had a summer of staying up late and waking up late.
My dad would call me his Cuban princess because I had really dark olive skin because I was always in the sun; but I don't really go in the sun anymore, so that is why I am so white.
I personally don't think you can love two things like dancing and singing the same exact amount. There is always one that you like more, and that is most likely the one that you're better at, because you try harder in it.
I'm really into tall boots. I just got some new ones from Michael Kors that have these little gold studs. I have Valentino ones that I really love. Real, real tall boots!
My big break was becoming the spokesperson for Texas Instruments. Casting directors really started giving me a chance to read for projects.
We have disappointments all the time in the business, and I've lost way more projects than I've booked. I've learned from every opportunity and have been chosen for some really great projects!
My family was absolutely supportive. I did have a fear of cold reads because of my dyslexia, but my family's support and reading classes really helped me overcome my fear!
I want people to look at my films and say 'Wow, she's a good actress', and I know I'll have to work hard for that.
I'm in the studio for hours in that tiny little box, and really, the performing part is what I'm most excited about.
My makeup artist, Tonya Brewer, taught me the importance of moisturizing daily. Hydration is a must if you want pretty, dewy skin - which I love.
I think that everybody needs somebody to really look up to and know that even though you're going through a tough time, you'll get over it.
I think that since it's prom, you should definitely wear a long dress. You can wear a short one anytime! This is the moment when you get to be a princess, and for me, that means a sweetheart neckline, long, then pouf - out and big.
My dream artist to play at prom would be Frank Ocean. 'Thinking Of You' is one of my favorite songs. He makes really sweet music for slow dancing at prom.
I like 'As Long As You Love Me' and 'Boyfriend' by Justin Bieber. It gets you moving - you just can't help it! And 'Teach Me How To Dougie' gets Zendaya and I every time.
It's not the traditional promise ring. It's basically to always stay truthful. I think that's a really important part of a relationship, that you're always honest with each other.
I have to work extra hard because I am dyslexic. People said that I couldn't be an actress, but I'm proving them wrong. Acting has helped me overcome the challenge.
The Humane Society is so great to work with. Because everyone there is so nice and supportive, and they're all animal lovers like me.
I think everything about my life is magical. I've struggled, and against most odds, I'm truly having the experience of living my dreams.

Really good acting is not about dialogue. It's really just about small moments that really make the whole entire scene and the intention completely different than even maybe what the characters are saying. Two characters could be saying, "I hate you, and I don't want to be with you anymore!" But yet somehow, their toes are just inching more, you know, closer to each other. So a really big thing about acting is really just with your body.Collection: Hate
