On how she wrote her hit song ‘Espresso’ during her time off on the Eras Tour:
“I was in a ghost town that had one little creperie down the road. I had my shot of espresso, and then I might have had some champagne, and before I knew it the song was written…I definitely hear it now in every car I get into, and being on the radio, to me, is still—it’s like fate. You have to be at the right place at the right time.”
On being starstruck meeting Zac Efron:
“Oh god—I had a really dangerous Zac Efron phase, when he was in Hairspray…I was 12 years old, and I was on a beach for the Fourth of July. He would never remember this, but I saw him and said, ‘I’m a big fan of your work!’ He gave me a hug. And I remember thinking, Oh my god—he wasn’t wearing a shirt and he gave me a hug! I was like, This is amazing. I’m never washing my body!”
Recalling how she got started performing:
“…I did my first audition when I was around 11 years old. The second or third audition was for the first job that I booked—Law & Order: SVU. I was thrown off by that booking because I always wanted to do comedy. And on that show, I was a victim. I remember running the lines with my dad and asking, ‘Is this what acting is?’ And then I booked Orange Is the New Black. Can I swear? That episode was called ‘F-cksgiving’…I went from raunchy to Disney!”
