HAHAHA!

I don't do it to my family, because they're so "over" me?

Sometimes I go out in life- there's a guy who works at my Coffee Bean, and he's a big Avatar fan, and I'll order my drink in my Azula voice!

Sometimes if I hear people talking about the show - I was in a line at Best Buy, and I heard people talking about AVATAR, and I spoke in the voice then too! Sometimes it's fun to freak people out, now and then.

Awwww. It's an honor. It can make you feel somewhat old if someone says "Oh, you're my childhood!" and they're like 24 year old adults. But it's totally flattering. And I feel like I did a pretty good job, because most of the people that I've met who say that I'm their childhood are really great people.

I've also ruined some people's childhoods - when I meet them, and say something gross or inappropriate, and people say "Oh my god! You just ruined my childhood!"

I was Emily Elizabeth on CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG and when you hear her swear for the first time online - it kind of messes with some people.

1.) I really love the Katara character. I actually got to play the actress playing Katara in the series - they did a play within the series, and they had me play that role -but Mae Whitman really does such an incredible job. But if anything ever happened to Mae, I'd steal that role in a heartbeat.

2.) Well, a lot of people don't know that when I did that Agni Kai last fight, I did it completely by myself. I was in the booth completely alone, and I got completely decimated, but I was in tears, in the booth, by myself, acting all alone! A lot of people don't know that. It was a very emotional scene and I had nobody to play off of.

3.) She'd be sitting on that damn throne by the end. EVERYBODY knows that. There's a great photo that an artist did on Tumblr of that - I tweeted it a long time ago - it says "I win!" So if you want to see that, you can look it up!

1.) I always wanted to do Snow White! Snow White's my favorite Disney movie, and my favorite Disney character, and I got really close on the soundalike for it, but I ultimately didn't make it, but that was a total dream for me to be Snow White.

2.) My own voice. My absolute OWN voice. I think everybody has that same syndrome - where you hear yourself and you're like "Who's that horrible person reading a message!" And then you find out it's you. When they ask me to do my own voice, I don't even know what that is! Sometimes they've asked me that - "just talk like yourself" - and then I have to pause to think about what I sound like. But yea, that's the one I can't stand the most, is my own voice!

3.) I never practice. I feel like I'm a really bad example, because I don't do voice exercises, I don't avoid certain foods before I record... I just kinda go in there and do it! And I don't usually need a voice reference, it's just all somewhere catalogued in my head. I do try to watch as much popular shows so that when they throw out a reference at an audition, I know what they're talking about. I tend to get lost in old movies and stuff, so a lot of times my references aren't what other people's are, so I have to force myself to watch things like Keeping Up with the Kardashians - because I did an episode of THE BOONDOCKS recently where they wanted me to sound like a Kardashian cousin. And that was the most sacrifice I've done for my art, was to be miserable for 30 minutes.

Well, I know we talk about Azula all the time, but she's the star of the show! One of the best written female characters in all of animation history, I think. And so I was just so honored I was able to play her - she's so complex, so deep, she breaks a lot of female stereotypes, and she's a total badass.

I would say "Azula has huge balls" but I don't want to get in trouble with the tumblr-people.

I love Vicky's ^{"GOTOBED,TWERP!"}

I like to yell at that my son sometimes. He doesn't know what I'm talking about, but I do.
