David Bowie is such a big influence to me. Everything about him as a person is intriguing to me.
Animal testing is needless, especially in cosmetics.
All my friends I've known since I was really little.
A part of me feels like I was an animal in my past life that wasn't treated very nicely.
I think when people see that you are shy, or even just calm, collected and reserved, they think you can be pushed around, made to do everything they want - but that's definitely not true of me. The people closest to me know that's not the case. They know I'm not a pushover.
The most important thing to me is to give something back to my parents, because they've done so much for me throughout my life.
I am a whole lot of trouble.
I am definitely an individual.
I really love getting hot stone massages. They really help me relax and it's so soothing for your muscles.
I love horseback riding. I still do it.
I love a beautiful gown on stage, and luckily I've been fortunate to wear some amazing dresses.
I dont hate L.A. There's a very beautiful side to it; it's scenic, and I can go horse riding.
I don't really read the tabloids, and you never know if what's being printed is true or not.
I don't get involved in record label politics.
