“It\u2019s just what I did after school \u2014 and then had to come home to four hours of homework a night,” she told Vanity Fair<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I will tell you that as a 17-year-old, I felt like a 40-year-old, and a lot of it just had to do with the school workload. But that preciousness of being on a TV show didn\u2019t really hit until then, so I think it saved me.”<\/p>\n
