For me, it's quite an honor to be Belle just because she is my favorite Disney character. It's cliche to say that now, but she really always has been.

Sometimes Disney likes to package people - as the perfect blonde, or whatever. And I'm really not the perfect anything. I'm just me.

It would be a half-hour comedy that would really showcase my personality so my fans could get to know me. And I'd love to keep working with ABC.

Because I don't think Disney understood how much of a fan base I had either. I didn't even understand how much of a fan base I had.

I think that was the first time in my whole 20-year-old existence that I stepped up and became an adult. And I'm really happy with the results.

I think what's going to happen is if - when - I progress further into the acting community, I want to have much more of a public stance on any issue.

I have good eyes, so I usually play them up so they stand out. I do a liner around the top of my eye and half way into the bottom.

Developing a series is a next step for me.

But first I want to get my master's degree at Columbia's School of International Public Affairs.

So a lot of me is still a little kid, and I think that kind of helps alter my sense of reality - it makes me able to just become Belle every single night.
