I would like to sit and and write some acoustic stuff. That's what I want to do. It means creatively, that's what I want so I need to do that for myself and then I'll see.
No one really knows what I'm really like, and you won't unless you spend a day with me, or if you're my friend. No one ever knows what anyone is really like. Read all the interviews you want on them, it's just the media talking and you can't really get to know someone that way, obviously.
My mom made me go to a Britney Spears concert when I was young. And I was like, 'No, I don't want to!' she was like, 'You're going to be a performer, you need to see other people.'
I have a look that girls want to copy.
I'm very comfortable with how I look. I always have been. I think I look pretty good. There's nothing I want to change. I'm pretty happy with what I've got.
I want to be played on the radio. I want to have Top 40 hits,
I get all these loser preps coming up to me asking for autographs and all this crap, and I really want to tell them, 'My music is not for people like you!
i dont want to be compared to britney,ashlee,hilary or lindsay. i want to be compared to me.

It felt like it was a break, because I was in one place the whole time,
I think she's absolutely stunning and I'm a huge fan.
I think they're awesome. I played in Monterrey and it was one of the best crowds I've ever had.
i dont want to be compared to britney,ashlee,hilary or lindsay. i want to be compared to me.
I was signed by L.A. Reid on Arista Records when I was 16. He understood me and believed in me. Arista folded and I got put on RCA or whatever, then there were new people there, and every six months it changes and more new people come in.
