“I am not Betty Cooper.
I don’t have an on switch all of the time,” she said.
I’m the kind of person if I don’t like you, unfortunately you know that.

However, Reinhart was quick to point out she isn’t totallyunlikeBetty either.
“I do have a lot of love to give.
She cares so much about her family and friends, and that’s how I am.

Even though I may be a little harsh and blunt, I’m still loving!”
“I like darker things,” she admitted.
“I enjoy watching thrillers and horror movies and dramas.

So I really like to be a part of that kind of stuff.”
Refreshingly, Reinhart refuses to pretend everything is great all the time.
I see any acne on my face as an obsessive thing.

The actress also revealed that admitting she needed help was the best decision she’d ever made.
“Honestly, therapy was a life saver.
The same with medication.

I did what I had to do, and I don’t think it’s weak.
It’s the opposite.
I’m not going to tell you my love story.

That’s just not appropriate right now.”
TheRiverdalestar reiterated those concerns toWho What Wear, noting, “I’m so protective over it.
He does as well.

I’m not a boring person.
I think it is well earned, and about time.”
“I was like, well, this is something I wanna do.

I was always a performer kid, like annoyingly so.
Reinhart’s parents supported her 100 percent, even driving her eight hours to New York for auditions.
But it’s been an uphill battle, and theRiverdalestar holds no illusions about that fact.

“It definitely didn’t happen overnight.
“I told myself I was going to go back to L.A. and give it another spin.
Thankfully, unbeknownst to the fledgling actress, her big break was just around the corner.

I sent it in, and wasn’t the girl.
I still am, but I’ve definitely grown outside that a lot,” she admitted toMarie Claire.
“It’s hard being an introvert and being famous.

Maybe some people find that obnoxious, but I felt the need to say, ‘No.
I’m not pregnant.’
It’s kind of sad that people felt the need to make my weight a topic of conversation.”

TheRiverdalestar also toldVoguethat she has no time for haters.
“If you hate me so much, don’t f***ingtalkabout me.
you’re gonna wanna find something better to do with your time,” she stated.

She’s quite independent and handles things on her own.
She’s strong, and she’s fiery.
Which I like,” Reinhart noted.

The young actress is smart about her choices.
“I was always very picky about my scripts.
I just look for great stories.

It has to be a compelling story with compelling characters, and that’s a high bar.
But again, I only want to do the best.
Maybe that’s cocky of me to say, but I don’t care.

She still feels the desire to prove herself.
“It’s weird to get direct offers now, rather than having to audition.
I still feel like I need to prove myself, very much so.
You’ve seen me doRiverdale, but that’s basically all anyone’s ever seen,” she argued.
