I love the creative process. That's always been the closest thing to my heart, creating something.
I'm not the fastest writer. I can't just crank out ideas that are good enough.
I've gotten to where my hair is like my onstage prop; I need to hide behind it and throw it around - it's my slo-mo effect.
My biggest dream from the beginning - besides Evanescence - is scoring film and writing music for film.
The only place I'm recognized is at the mall, because that's where the teens are.
The way that I've always gone about making music, the rule of thumb, has just been to make what I love.
Christina Aguilera's 'Stripped' had a lot of good songs. It's my range, so I use it to warm up a lot.
When I was in high school, I listened to a lot of death metal bands.
I don't want to ever be a quote-unquote rock star. I want to just be me.
It might not look it but rocking in a corset is harder than you think
Too bad you can't quote the look on my face.
I love tiny, plastic realistic food magnets. I don't know why. They're hilarious.
You don’t have to be half-naked to be successful. Just be talented.
It's true we're all a little insane
