I get 'female Kendrick' quite a lot. I'm definitely not complaining. At the same time, I want to be the female Simz. I just want to be me.

I just wanted to kind of break down those gender stereotypes and just say everyone's equal, everyone's their own person, everyone's their own individual.

I enjoy albums, not a song here and there. The recordings I like have been a soundtrack to a universe.

I believe in equality: guys have rights, women have rights. It should be the same with race, or class, or whatever. I just like balance.

Mom+Pop aren't just a label, but they were the group of people that seemed to really care about a long-term relationship. I can be honest with them, like I would with my family, but at the same time, I can expect for them always to be upfront and honest with me.

I have no hesitation doing children's movies. Zero. And I don't even have kids.

I can't disappear. I come from a family of beautiful women, strong women - and 'strong' defined by being themselves.

Kids are all computer-savvy. Sit down and write to your parents on the computer. And just say, I have some questions and I'm scared. There's some stuff I don't know and I really need to talk to you about sex. Tear it off and put it on their pillow. They'll read it.
