I’d like a pop-up magazine with 45 articles on Russell Crowe. I’m like a teenager. I’d have ‘Teen Beat’ if I could, for grown-ups.
People ask me, ‘How’s ‘Teen Wolf?’ and I tell them it’s literally the best job I’ve ever had. It’s hard. Everybody wants to be a series regular. It’s something that a lot of actors would kill to have. That being said, it’s very demanding of you, in so many different ways.
‘I Think We’re Alone Now’ just makes people feel good. It became a teen anthem twice. How cool is that?
Being a musician since I was a teen, Guitar Center is the staple. You need anything to create, it’s there. You need a Guitar Center. You gotta give it homage. It’s a tool shed, and without the tool shed, it’s hard to create.
I think if we were going to worry about teen pregnancy being glamorized, we should worry about shows like ‘Teen Mom’. If people are going to want to have children at a young age because they see it on TV, I think that depends on the type of person you’re dealing with.
I went to ‘The Nutcracker’ every year with my grandma and aunt. Then, in my early teen years, I thought I wanted to be a ballet dancer. I went real gung-ho in that direction, and I started performing in ‘The Nutcracker.’

When I started out as a music journalist, at the end of the 1980s, it was generally assumed that we were living through the lamest music era the world would ever see. But those were also the years when hip-hop exploded, beatbox disco soared, indie rock took off, and new wave invented a language of teen angst.
Most people, almost everyone knows of a teen mom. Teen pregnancy rates are growing, and we need to bring awareness to that.
If you can get a teen leader in each sector of a student population, you can pull people in. Everybody wants to get involved, but most are too afraid. When they see a person they think is cool leading it, they’re first to join.

I was into all kinds of music as a teen – country music, because my dad was in a band that played country, and whatever my sister and brother were into.
‘The Karate Teen’ was great, where John Cena kicked me through four walls, or five walls. It was amazing how the film unit put that together. They literally strapped me to a chair and dragged me through five different set walls.
Mrs. Palin is history in a dress. And her script is straight out of Hollywood – like those teen movies with the cliched ending featuring the female valedictorian delivering the speech of a lifetime projecting a bold and transformative future with an independent-minded woman in charge.
In our country, being from immigrant parents, growing up black in the South, coming out at 16 years old, being a teen parent… you would assume that my life would amount to nothing. And here I stand today. So, if I can do it… you can, too!
Jockeying for a popularity position has been a valorized teen tradition since the notion of a discrete teen stage of life was invented.
I do a lot of teen shows and voice over work for animation, so when I got the part in ‘The Number 23,’ it was really cool because now I get to be in a movie with Jim Carrey. Acting in this movie was really a learning experience for me.
My first encounter with Cyborg was through the ‘Teen Titans’ cartoon.
I love being in a public space where teenagers are talking. And the funny thing is that it hasn’t changed that much. There’s certainly slang that I’m not familiar with, but among the average teen, it’s still the same.
We all have things in our lives that are terrible: you apologize for them; you wish you never had you name on it. But ‘Teen Wolf’ is something that I’m very proud of.
I’ve thought about it, but I don’t think I’d ever get a ‘Teen Wolf’ tattoo, and I don’t know why.
Female adolescence is – universally – an emotionally and psychologically intense period.
Teen pregnancy went way down in the ’90s, and 75 percent of it was because of increased use of contraception.

So many people try to grow up too fast, and it’s not fun! You should stay a kid as long as possible!
Telling a teenager the facts of life is like giving a fish a bath.
I’m a comic nerd. I’m a former serious collector for much of my childhood and early teen years I wanted to draw underground comics.
I’ve got some great stuff in my sports memorabilia collection. But my favorite thing by far is the robe. I actually have a Ric Flair robe with ‘the Nature Boy’ on the back. That’s awesome. When I look at it, it brings back so many memories of my childhood and my teen years.
In my teen years leading up to the Olympics, I loved having the excuse to skip out on parties because of skating. Partying wasn’t my thing anyway. Mostly I hung out with other skaters. We were all buddies, so it’s not like I missed out on socializing. I was really enjoying myself.
I definitely think there could be stricter teen driving laws.
I grew up in this household where reading was the most noble thing you could do. When I was a teenager, we would have family dinners where we all sat there reading. It wasn’t because we didn’t like each other. We just liked reading. The person who made my reading list until my late teen years was my mom.
‘Choli Ke Peeche’ and ‘Ek Doh Teen’ were my favourite numbers as a kid. I was a huge fan of Madhuri Dixit and would spend hours looking into the mirror and aping her expressions, believing that the mirror was the camera!
I used to play ‘Grand Theft Auto’ when I was an early teen, between eleven and thirteen.

I’ve always enjoyed teen characters, and kids as well. For whatever reason, I seem to have an ability to do it sort of well, and I enjoy doing it.
Well, I could do it for a day, but I wouldn’t want to be a teenager again. I really wouldn’t.
The distinction has blurred between young adult and adult books. Some of the teen books have become more sophisticated.
I’m still good friends with everybody from ‘Teen Wolf.’ I still see them, and I go to Jeff Davis’ for ‘Teen Wolf’ night when I can. It was such a rewarding experience. That’s such a fun set.
It’s only shocking to the uninitiated that ‘Teen Vogue’ would have the audacity to be political and style-focused.
I think the fans from the original ‘Teen Wolf’ tuned in expecting us to ruin the franchise, and I think that we’ve only heightened it. So we’ve brought ‘Teen Wolf’ back.
My high school years were fun and frustrating, typical of the teen years. The most important accomplishment was meeting my wife, Ruth.
Friendships in childhood are usually a matter of chance, whereas in adolescence they are most often a matter of choice.
Costumes say a lot about a character. When it came to ‘Palo Alto,’ it was important for me that the kids didn’t look perfect. In most teen movies today, all of the clothes are expensive. I remember wearing a lot of dirty vintage clothes.
Growing up, I didn’t have a lot of toys, and personal entertainment depended on individual ingenuity and imagination – think up a story and go live it for an afternoon.
When I was 13, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue television and film roles. I booked shows like ‘The Secret Life of the American Teenager,’ ‘Liv and Maddie,’ and ‘Teen Wolf.’

I didn’t know what it was going to look like or how anything was going to turn out, but the production on ‘Teen Wolf’ is so amazing. The way that they shoot it, edit it, and put it out there, it’s really so exciting. I trust the team so much. They do such a good job.
I mean, I’m pretty good in real life, but sometimes people seem surprised that I’m like a normal teenager and wear black nail polish and I’m just a little bit more edgy than the person I play on television.
Writing a teen character is something I wanted to try again for a long time!
The youth need to be enabled to become job generators from job seekers.
It seems like whenever a big newspaper or TV show talks about teen literature, they focus on dark books or vampire books. It’s kind of this cliche. It seems like the only time adults pay attention is with that angle.
As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic.
I was never interested in ‘Teen Beat’ like roles. I just wanted to work.
There was so much pressure to fit in, I tried to force myself to be like everyone else. The last thing any teen wants is to be ‘uncool.’
I’ll write teen stories as long as people will let me. I’ll also be excited for the day when I’m told I can no longer write teen stories.
