You have probably also seen her in the movie <em>Easy A</em>.</p> <p>This 21-year-old California girl stars in this month’s go-to horror flick, <em>The Roommate</em>, and it’s time to pay attention. Complex recently went behind the pom-poms with Aly on the set of Hellcats to talk guns, guy friends, guns, and guns again (naturally).</p> <p><strong>Complex:</strong> You look like such a sweet girl on Hellcats. Tell me something surprising.</p> <p><strong>Alyson Michalka:</strong> I’m a huge book fanatic, and I shoot. I’m very comfortable around guns. I’ve been shooting since I was 9. I usually shoot a .22 Magnum, but I prefer a shotgun because the feeling is incredible.</p> <p><strong>Complex:</strong> Books, shmooks—but a cheerleader who prefers a shotgun? Guys must love that.</p> <p><strong>Alyson Michalka:</strong> [Laughs.] Yeah. It’s fun to work with so many girls on a movie like The Roommate, because I actually have more guy friends.</p> <p><strong>Complex:</strong> I’m going to go out on a limb and say a few of them want to be more than just friends.</p> <p><strong>Alyson Michalka:</strong> I have platonic relationships with my guy friends. There’s some friends that I’ve kissed or whatever, but it was always just once. There’s no awkwardness. One of my best friends is an ex, and we talk all the time.</p> <p>Read the <a href="http://www.complex.com/pop-culture/2011/02/alyson-michalka-x-hot-complex-the-extended-gallery-and-interview" target="_blank">rest on Complex </a></p>  <!--more-->   <p><a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fb76970b-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Aly2" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330147e261fb76970b" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fb76970b-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="Aly2" /></a> <br /> <a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fbbd970b-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Aly4" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330147e261fbbd970b" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fbbd970b-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="Aly4" /></a> <br /> <a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fc33970b-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Aly5" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330147e261fc33970b" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fc33970b-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="Aly5" /></a> <br /> <a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330148c86af2eb970c-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Aly6" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330148c86af2eb970c" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330148c86af2eb970c-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="Aly6" /></a> <br /> <a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330148c86af35b970c-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="AlyM1" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330148c86af35b970c" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330148c86af35b970c-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="AlyM1" /></a> <br /> <a href="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fd29970b-800wi.jpg" rel="lightbox" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Alyson-Michalka" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e5537d966288330147e261fd29970b" src="/images/old/6a00e5537d966288330147e261fd29970b-500wi.jpg" style="width: 470px;" title="Alyson-Michalka" /></a> <br /><br /></p>
