“I try to approach things always from a place of positivity, and it’s not always the case,” she said. “Journalists can be really f–king sneaky. That’s why I record everything now, because I’m like, ‘You say something I didn’t say? I got proof.’ But it’s a weird world because I want to be genuine — and I am — and you never know how that’s going to come across.”
About figuring out her place in Hollywood, Shailene said, “For better or for worse, I’ve just been who I am. I get called weird a lot. It’s humorous because I actually think I’m very normal and boring. I’m drawn to the simple things in life, like a flower on the street or a smile from anyone. So I’ve never really had to figure out how to navigate it because I just always did me.”
