Kristen Bell Opens Up To Parade.com

'You Again' star Kristen Bell gave Parade.com a candid interview about her engagement to Dax Shepard, turning 30, and her guilty pleasure.

On recently turning 30.

"I love 30 more than I've ever loved anything. I feel like I was born on my

30th birthday. It's finally the time where I've fully accepted and loved

myself, which I'm realizing more and more each day -- it is so important to

love yourself. Because if you don't love yourself than nothing really

matters. For a long time, I went through life kind of beating myself up and

trying to be a perfectionist and do everything right and I just thought,

'What's the point?' I have faults, that's fine. I can still strive to be

better, but I'm not going to be as rough on myself as I used to and it's

just kind of alleviating all of this stress and kind of taken a weight off

my shoulders and I think now I'm just happy."

Finding comfort in her engagement to Dax Shepard.

"I never loved dating. I think it's very uncomfortable to put yourself out there and be vulnerable. I'm much more comfortable in a relationship and I'm very happy."

Her guilty pleasure:

"I'm always DVR'ing Jersey Shore I've never been ashamed to admit that. I probably should be ashamed to admit that, but I'm not. I think that it's one of the greatest disasters to ever come to television and I just love the lessons they learn each week and the trouble they get into."

Given 'Jersey Shore's' ratings, I don't think Kristen is the only one- LOL.
