I stood in front of Sony (Music headquarters) out here, I stood right in front of the building with a jam box and a tape player, singing my heart out,
I've dated a couple of guys who were awesome, and the celebrity part of my life and the traveling part are hard to get around. You never get to see each other, especially if you're both musicians.
When I went to Los Angeles right after high school, I got some acting jobs, and I never, ever wanted to be an actress! Public speaking and acting make me want to vomit. But I have never been nervous singing. When it comes to public speaking, I stumble on my words, sweat, and pull at my clothes.
Hearing the Evanescence album you can obviously tell that David and Ben have a real passion for that big kind of background and I have a big voice and I like the music to match it, so it was a real dream team, ... They're both so different from each other and so different from me, but I think the three of us getting together just created such great songs.
I'm not super conservative, and I have no problem with people being risque or owning your sexuality or even putting it out there. I have a problem when it's all you are because you're not being fair to yourself; you have more depth than this.
Since you've been gone, I can breath for the first time.

I've always been about less government.
I'm always going to live in Texas. Texas is my home - it'll be my home forever.

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly. I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
The thing about Christmas is that it almost doesn't matter what mood you're in or what kind of a year you've had; it's a fresh start.
Just because I’m single and don’t date a lot, that doesn’t make me a lesbian.
Confidence is seen, not heard.
