Alexis Chang<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: When did you know you wanted to get into acting?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Ever since I was five I liked to watch TV and I wanted to be on TV.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Who is your favorite actress?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> I like Lindsay Lohan. I think she’s a really good actress and she makes everything so real as if it really happened. I like Brenda Song.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Was it hard to play Katie?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> It wasn’t that hard because I have a little brother and he’s really annoying and he acted like him.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Did you get along with Jeffrey?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Yeah he was very nice. He never did a feature film, like me, so we got along well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: How did you like working with Jade and Samantha?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Jade is kind of like my mother, except my mom doesn’t spank me. I never really saw Samantha on the set.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Do you like how the entire film turned out?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> I wasn’t really allowed to see it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: What did you like most about working on the film?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Everyone was really nice. There were a couple fun scenes. Michael, the director was really nice to me. He helped me with the film.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Is anything hard for you when you act?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> No because I can just do it again and no one will get mad at me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: What do you want to be when you grow up?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Professional soccer player and a TV reporter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Are you going to continue acting?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> Oh yeah I’ll do that on the side because I think it will help me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: What other hobbies do you like?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> I play gymnastics and lacrosse.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: I hear you are a great gymnast. Do you want to go to the Olympics?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> That would be really nice.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ASIANCE: Do you have any favorite Asian American actresses?<\/h3>\n

Alexis: <\/strong> I like Brenda Song. I never see a lot of Asian actors in films.<\/p>\n
