In Rapid Fire, we ask each Girl to finish the beginning of a sentence we provide. They will have only mere milliseconds to provide a response, so these answers will come straight from their unconscious, unencumbered by oppressive societal conventions and the insidious forces of excessive politeness. Enjoy Stella Maeve! My motto is… live each day like it’s your last. I can’t stand... [Read more]
I think that helping the Earth is a big, big thing. I recycle. When I go grocery shopping, I bring my burlap sack, my burlap bags. In L.A., you see it a lot more than New York, but I definitely see more and more people doing it, making a difference and every little bit helps. Don’t use plastic bags. If you can afford it, buy a Prius. Whatever you can do to help. Ride a bike. Try new and... [Read more]
I think the best thing to do is to surround yourself with positive people; people that have a good energy and want to live life and smile. When you spend so much time around people that aren’t lifting you up or making you feel like these things are possible, it’s a waste of everyone’s time. It’s not a good feeling. Surround yourself with people that you have fun with,... [Read more]
That role was so much fun to do because it’s totally not me at all; the complete polar opposite of me now and me at 14. I did actually live on the Upper West Side for a little while, but it isn’t what it used to be. It’s very different now. Nobody wants to live on the Upper East Side anymore. Everybody is all about Soho and the East Village and the West Village. That was great... [Read more]
I had no idea what to expect of Kristen. I had seen her work. And Dakota’s as well. I wasn’t nervous or anything, just almost like, “I really have to step up my game because I’m working with these amazing actresses and I don’t want to be the weakest link.” Kristen and Dakota and I became really close very quick. We hit it off right away. We all just spent a lot of time together on... [Read more]
Sandy West – she’s the only one that’s not around with us anymore. I talked with all of her friends and family. I studied the videos. I spoke on the phone with her sister and her mother, and read up on her. I wanted to live my life the way that she did and try to get it down perfectly because it’s really important, especially since she’s no longer here. It’s extremely hard. Joan and... [Read more]
Hell’s Kitchen is my hometown. I was born at Lenox Hill Hospital. I loved acting ever since I was four years old. I’m named after Stella Adler who was a famous acting teacher. My mom was a theatre actress. My dad – he’s an amazing dancer, chef, and musician. He plays the drums – that’s where I learned them from. I think both of them are just very eccentric and amazing artists.... [Read more]
I did know who they were. My dad played the drums in the 80s, so I was around a lot of music. My mom’s a big music fan too. I wasn’t that familiar with the group – that’s why I wasn’t a fan. But I definitely knew who they were. They changed rock and roll history. Think about it – the 1970s, 15 year old girls in an all rock band. Nobody would’ve ever thought. They went worldwide....

“I want people to take away from this movie that it doesn’t matter what age you are or what sex you are, you can do anything. Anything is possible in this life,” says Stella Maeve of her upcoming rock n roll bio-pic The Runaways. It’s based on the all-girl, teenage band that launched the career of Joan Jett in the 70s. Stella plays co-founder and drummer Sandy West, and she can relate... [Read more]

Alison Goodman is a Writer, Casting Director and pop culture junkie based in New York. She has worked for the CW, ABC Family and the WB. A self-proclaimed TV fanatic, there isn’t a Bravo marathon she hasn’t vegged out to, she still mourns the loss of “Friday Night Lights,” and can’t go to sleep on Thursday night if she hasn’t watched “The Vampire Diaries.”
