You definitely have to be focused at certain times in your life and in your career, but at the end of the day, there’s only so much you can do. Then you just have to chock it up to fate. Skylar Astin Read Quote
Skylar is my first name and Astin is my middle name, and my real last name is Lipstein. When I was 15, I think my first agent just kind of did it for me. I’m not ashamed, I’m not embarrassed, but she said it was just less specific to one thing and she kind of chopped it off. But forever to my friends I will be Skylar Lipstein. Skylar Astin Read Quote
The 1990s, in New York at least, were all about who could have the baggiest pants, and I definitely got swept up in that fad. Luckily, it didn’t last long – but I’ve made sure that my pants fit ever since. Skylar Astin Read Quote
My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor. Skylar Astin Read Quote
I first got into acting when I was 14, coming back from a junior high school basketball game. My mom picked me up and she had been mentioning, prior to that, this community production of ‘Godspell’, a couple towns over. I was reluctant, at first, and she bribed me with some great dinner that was in that town, neighboring the theater. Skylar Astin Read Quote
I like that ‘Pitch Perfect’ is one of my first forays into film and just being seen in that kind of light, aside from some people who know me from ‘Spring Awakening’ or the other things that I’ve done. I think in so many ways it’s kind of like my own ‘Glee’ or ‘Smash’. Skylar Astin Read Quote
The thing about a pick-up line is, even if it works, then what? I just figure you unapologetically be yourself, and if it works, cool. Skylar Astin Read Quote
I always separate myself from reviews, but tweets and Instagram comments, they go directly to my phone. It’s hard to keep up. Skylar Astin Read Quote
I’m definitely lucky to have been included in some of the perks of my brother’s connections in the fashion world. It’s helpful considering I’m still like a five-year-old when it comes to shopping. Skylar Astin Read Quote
I don’t believe in pick-up lines because I’ve always been very comfortable in my own skin. Skylar Astin Read Quote
