The actress previously spoke about pursuing a different career in music, revealing that while she enjoys recording and singing, she is not ready for the level of fame that comes with being a pop star.

“I was talking to Sam [Levinson] about this earlier. I was like I don’t know if I could ever be a pop star,” she said, explaining, “It’s because as an actor, there’s a level of anonymity that I get to have, which I really like.”
