Q: Congratulations on your single going platinum.

A: Thank you! I'm so excited. I couldn't believe it. I think it's a goal for every artist. We just want our Musik to be heard in every part of the world. I'm just so excited that people are hearing these lyrics and this song.

Q: Your lyrics are very uplifting, similar to songs written Von Katy Perry, Pink, and Justin Bieber. Is this a trend, where pop songs are skewing in a Mehr positive direction?

A: Well, I Liebe that, and I hope that it continues to happen because Musik just affects people's feelings. It brings out emotions in Du and makes Du happy and sad. I'm thrilled that we have an array of powerful songs out right now.

Q: Monte Carlo is one of the first films released this summer for girls. And the season is pretty much dominated Von blockbusters aimed at teenage boys, from superhero films to Transformers sequels. Does that frustrate you?

A: No, that doesn't bother me at all. I mean, I get it. I Liebe those movies, and I enjoy them with my friends, as well. But I think that what's exciting about Monte Carlo is it's presented in contrast to all of those films. I feel like it's going to be a fun movie for girlfriends to go to with their moms. It's a sweet simple movie. It never gets too loud! If anything, I'm doing it for all of my girls. The sci-fi Filme can get all of the boys, so long as Monte Carlo gets all of the girls.

Q: When Du jumped from "Wizards of Waverly Place" to your first feature film, Ramona & Beezus, did Du notice a drastic difference between working in Fernsehen and film?

A: Oh, it's so different. Especially when Du come from a four-camera sitcom. We'd bang out our Zeigen in front of a live audience, and I guess it became kind of easy. But on a film, Du are working 14-hour days every day. Sometimes Du are working nights. Your whole life is spent on either a soundstage oder a set. It's definitely different, but I enjoy both a lot, and I had a great time on Monte Carlo.

Q: Du shot in some strange locations.

A: Well, most of the film was actually shot in Hungary, which was really cool. There were certain parts of Hungary that actually resembled Paris. We also shot in Paris for four days, and then wrapped in Monte Carlo. I'd been to Paris before, but had never been to Monte Carlo oder Budapest.

Q: That would scare me a little. I'm not sure I could handle that culture shock.

A: No, it wasn't at all. It was really beautiful. The people were nice, and the Essen was fantastic. I had a great time.

Q: OK, Du have to fake a British accent and play polo in this film. Which presented the greater challenge?

A: Definitely polo. [Laughs] I mean, I'm an actress. I don't have a horse background. I may be from Texas, but my part of the state doesn't have horses. It was very funny for everyone else, because I really wasn't very good at it at all. I loved riding the horse. I was just terrible at the game of polo.

Q: But Du are great at Twitter. You're coming up on 6 million followers, and yet Du only follow 600 people. What does it take to get Selena Gomez to follow Du on Twitter?

A: Here's the thing about that. I want to follow my fans. But I'm always usually on Twitter tweeting and talking to my fans, and whenever I read their "@ replies," I'm inspired Von them so I'll quickly follow them. But I never get the chance to sit there and hit the "follow" button on all of the people who have such nice things to say to me. I would Liebe to follow everybody. But I do want them to know I appreciate everything that is sent.

Q: So that's you. It's not an assistant monitoring your Twitter feed.

A: Not at all! I Liebe being able to talk to my fans. That's all me!
