Rumer Willis praises parents' advice

Actress Rumer Willis has praised her parents, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore for steering her career in the right direction and helping her avoid the Hollywood party lifestyle.

Willis told Access Hollywood: "I see a lot of a situations that seem to me to be lacking self-respect and a self-value where girls get drunk and they just kind of fall over each other.

"Unfortunately, when you know you're growing up and you are in this business, you don't really have the same ability to make mistakes and have it not be really detrimental. Honestly, it's been kind of making mistakes and figuring them out and having a lot of really great people as my mentors."

The From Within actress also claimed that she wants to be recognised a star in her own right, rather than somebody who rides on the success of her famous parents.

She added: "I learned very quickly what kind of person I didn't want to be. I don't want to be somebody who doesn't take their job seriously.

"There's obviously a lot of people that want to say that I have some big trust fund. And it's so easy to judge people and put them down when you're not looking at them in the face."
