My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more. I'll be different sizes all the time.
If I can wake up everyday before I die and know that I don't have to serve anyone food or drinks, I will be happy!
Even though I'm a pop singer, I really have more the life of a country singer.
I'm a hygiene freak. I'm like obsessive-compulsive when it comes to washing your hands.
I just blow-dry my hair and put on mascara and lip gloss, and I'm ready to go. I really don't get long nails. They're so Edward Scissorhands.
I never said I was a 'good girl.' I'm not a bad girl.
I do cardio. I run. I strength-train using my own body weight. I don't like free weights, because I build muscle easily.
Everyone says I'm like the girl next door... Y'all must have really weird neighbors!
I don't really exude that 'it' factor.
I love my body. I'm very much OK with it. I don't think artists are ever the ones who have the problem with their weight, it is other people.
I still watch 'Idol,' and it's still the No. 1 show, so obviously I'm not the only one who loves to sit at home and be entertained.
I try not to date musicians. It's all I've dated. Every guy I've dated is a musician. Obviously, it's not working.
I've loved my 20s, but I would never repeat them.
I live on a ranch in Texas and do my own thing. And I don't care what anyone has to say about it. My joke is that the only people I'm trying to please are myself and my fans, because they're the ones buying my records. And I have the best, most loyal fan base ever.
