Joy Lauren Quotes & Trivia

Quotes

Joy: (about Danielle) Well, when we started the show she was famous for snarky one liners, but was over all a good kid. Her father dies, her first real boyfriend breaks her heart and she has been on a steady down hill spiral since. The next love of her life holds up her mother then is shot by the SWAT team so she finds solace by sleeping with her history teacher. Her home life isn't steady so she clings to men who don't serve her well either. She's really changed a lot in the past two years, more than I have for sure.

Joy: (about comparing her mom to Bree) My mom's the complete opposite of Bree. She gave up so much for me to come out to LA and follow this dream so fervently. She's always given me a lot of freedom, which makes me want to show her that I deserve it. She's one of my best friends, we've been through a lot together.
