Teri Polo's Quotes

  • I moved to New York between my junior and senior years of high school to just see what it was like, to go to a modeling agency and see how to get representation.
  • In Hollywood, most things are based on looks, so I'd love to do something that has nothing to do with how I look.
  • I became disillusioned with dance when I was 16 and started focusing on acting.
  • There's something to be said for making out. Actually, I think we should go back to the days of a little bit more hair downstairs and more making out.
