“'I Think We're Alone Now' just makes people feel good. It became a tee...” — Tiffany Darwish Quote

'I Think We're Alone Now' just makes people feel good. It became a teen anthem twice. How cool is that?

Family is family, but sometimes they do hurt you. They don't mean to, but they can, and sometimes you have to fend for yourself.

My mum really depended on me. I'm the eldest of three girls, and she had emotional issues.

I'm a real girl. I get it. I gain weight, I lose weight. My styles change.

When you become a mega-icon overnight, there's no way to keep that intensity continually going.

Final Destination was the closest thing I've done to a teen movie but it certainly had an edge to it.

I was a quiet teenager, introverted, full of angst.

My kids idea of a hard life is to live in a house with only one phone.

I worked on congressional campaigns when I was a teenager. I did United Way fundraisers when I was a teen. We advocated; we spoke out. I protested the first Iraq War in college.

For me, the teen years were all about searching for a place for myself, wondering why I seemed so different than everyone else, wondering especially why no one could look past the surface and figure out who I really was underneath.
