I know my music is going well when I don't have insomnia.
There's been a progression in my sound.
I went to a Canadian college for performing arts and then I auditioned for Canadian Idol. That honestly was my golden ticket.
I definitely have a little attraction to bad guys, but they have to be sweethearts underneath. After all, I like to be treated well.
Candy apple red is my favorite color. It's a powerful color to wear. It's always been that way - I've always been really attracted to that color.
I always write what feels really true and honest and me.
What I like is a life that is full of surprises and [that has] no routine.
I have a couple of girlfriends who've told me some horror stories but I've never had a really terrible kiss before.
I'm a very lucky girl.
The way I write is generally about love. I have a great fascination about the subject.
I'm ... free-spirited. Maybe a little too free-spirited.
I really like guys who have confidence, but not the cocky over-the-top confidence.
I always wanted to be known as a songwriter and not just a songbird.
Life's too much fun to have it go in just one direction.
