Gillies: "In middle school, I was boy crazy and it was the worst! I would always lose, too. I was more into the competition than the boy by the end of it! I just wanted to win!"

Gillies: "I would like to go into movies. And I'd like to have a very successful movie career. Ultimately, I'd love to win an Oscar; that's my big goal in life, so that's what I'm going for."

Gillies: "I think dealing with mean girls is just a part of life. I never really took people like that too seriously."

Gillies: "The funny thing about voice over is you can go in in sweatpants and have your hair all messed up, and no one will see you, and you can still deliver the same great product."

[On how her partner proposed to her]

Gillies: “When we got there, he started leading me down to the backyard, I had no idea what he was doing. All of a sudden he got down on one knee and proposed to me right there. I was totally surprised. It was a perfect proposal.”

Gillies: "I try not to tweet too much; I'm a really sporadic tweeter. I will tweet nonstop for, like, 3 days, and then I won't for a month. I don't make it priority at all; if I feel like doing it, I do it, and if not, then I don't care."

[On postponing her wedding due to the pandemic]

Gillies: "Aside from the obvious travel and crowd restrictions, it didn’t feel right to be celebrating in such a big way when there was so much going on in the world.

Gillies: "The music on the radio is fine, it's just not my type of music. You don't play an instrument, and you don't need to be able to sing. You just need to be able to make a beat and use auto-tune. It's crazy!"

Gillies: "Once you lose the honesty in a relationship, I mean, I think you don't have a relationship at all."

Gillies: "I like playing a character that admires real musicianship, and real talent and hard work. I think that's a good message for everyone."
