The CW likes to hold on to its shows.

My mom pushed me to take drama class.

My first car was a 1986 Toyota pickup.

You never play age, you play character.

I've always been huge into martial arts.

Childhood bullying was a big part of my life.

I love traveling; it's, like, my perfect escape.

I love Shah Rukh Khan! I have seen many of his movies.

I've always been more in touch with my Ecuadorian side. I speak Spanish.

Anybody whos been to Ecuador wants to go back because its beautiful out there.

A perfect day would be to get into the car, drive out to Yosemite and go camping.

I moved in fourth grade in the middle of the school year, and I was the new kid in school.

I was a bio major, and I was going to take over my aunt's dental practice and be a dentist.

I broke into acting doing Latino roles. I played a Latino casanova in 'The Winner' and a Latino character on 'Hannah Montana.'

I'm a first-generation American, so I had friends from several cultures while growing up, including Indian and Iranian friends.

Even when I was doing well in acting, my dad would say, 'You can still go back to dental school.' But since I've been on '90210,' I haven't heard that.

I think when your imagination goes to work, and when you're first bullied, you feel like you're going to die. School becomes a war zone, and you can't function.

I discovered that I wanted to be an actor back when I did my first play in junior high. I've been doing theater in junior high and high school, and I just kept feeding the fire, kept wanting to pursue acting full-on.

Filming in India was one big adventure. For 'The Cheetah Girls', we were in Mumbai for two weeks, then Rajasthan for six weeks. Every day after shooting, I would hop into a rickshaw and start exploring the city. I even learned a bit of Hindi. It's such an amazing place to visit.
