I love healthy stuff and junk an equal amount. Whatever I'm craving, I go for it. I'm never trying to lose weight - or gain it. I'm just being.
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 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.
When I'm picking songs for an album I always want a song that I can relate to and that I have experienced. There's nothing worse than watching an artist try and sell a song that isn't believable coming from them.
Really, what I try to instill in my fans is to be healthy and happy. I have no desire to be super-skinny.
Everyone knew I didn't want to do it, but I had to, ... and I don't particularly want to do more.
Everyone says I'm like the girl next door...Y'all must have really weird neighbors!
I want to show up in a pimped-out Ford Bronco,
I'm excited to be participating in the T-Mobile All Access program, ... I can't wait to hook up with some of my fans and hang out backstage. Performing in New York City is always special, and I am really excited to play at the Hammerstein Ballroom.
I'm sorry I'm crying again on national television. Thank you so much, you have no idea what this means to me.
I'm very excited. The 12-year-old me is kicking myself.
I'm terrible at speaking when I cry. Thank you so much.
They wanted just the kids to get wet, but I ... just jumped out there with them.
They always talk about the big first thing that you did. I think the only thing that I do mind is I don't want people to only focus on that.
