Starring in the racy yet-to-be-released film Spring Breakers alongside Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley scrapped her good girl image for a naughty movie about sex, drugs, and spring breaking, and there may not be any room for turning back.

The Pretty Little Liars star is the cover girl for the latest issue of the teen magazine, and she’s sporting a fun look to fit the part. If patriotic shorts and blue streaks don’t scream “teen,” we don’t know what does.
Check out some excerpts from the interview below.
On her career goals:
“I love Michelle Williams and Natalie Portman—those are the careers I want. My goal is to win an Oscar, and I’m going to take the steps to get there.”
On how Spring Breakers changed her and co-stars Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez:
“We all came from a Disney background, and this was different from anything we’ve done. But we wanted to prove that we’re not just girls who play happy parts. It was such a crazy experience and it was character-building. I’m so proud of all of us. I’m really, really excited for everybody to see it.”
On Selena and ex Justin Bieber‘s response to the parody “Boyfriend” video from James Franco and herself:
“I haven’t heard from Selena! People thought that I was being mean, but I was just doing what the girl did in the video. It wasn’t a jab at her. But I heard from Justin. He wasn’t happy. Justin is like my little brother since he and my ex are so close. Anytime you go through a breakup, the friends get defensive. But all is well in that area now.”
You get that Oscar, girl!
