Q: I want to know, what is your most prized possession?
- Jena Fuller, Bancroft, Nebraska

PF: My guitar, Ladybug.

Q: I was wondering if you have a girlfriend, and what it is that you look for in a girl?
- Sharon Baty, Fresno, California

PF: No, and I don't know if I've figured that out in its entirety yet.

Q: I love the show, you are my favorite character. I didn't recognize you from "The Princess Diaries" until I read your profile. What was it like to work with Garry Marshall? What else do you have planned as far as movies are concerned?
- Lindsay, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

PF: Garry Marshall is an unbelievably sweet and nurturing man. "The World's Fastest Indian" is my most recent film, which should be out soon.

Q: Did you ever study "The Method" as an approach to acting? You have an intensity that reminds me of the great Actor's Studio male actors (e.g. Marlon Brando, whom you kind of resemble, no?) And do you have any interest in theater work?
- Stephen McLeod, New York City

PF: I did study Meisner, and I continue to train as an actor. Absolutely, I am interested in theater. I grew up in theater, and film and television is a fairly recent venture for me.

Q: What's it like being a young actor in Hollywood? How do you handle all the stress, and what do you do in your free time?
- Natarsha, Perth, Western Australia

PF: I'm having an amazing time - I feel like the luckiest boy in the world. I don't remember the last time I was stressed - I have many friends, and we just have as much fun as we possibly can (which is a lot).
