I have six brothers and sisters. We all look totally different: blonde hair, curly hair, green eyes, dark eyes, dark skin, light skin. It's just how it is.
As much as my parents are part of Hollywood, I have no recollection of them giving me advice about it.
When a thing you love faces adversity, you start to feel more protective of it. Also, you take an inventory all the time. You ask yourself, "Is this worth all my fighting?"
I am definitively qualitative about work.
When people don't know what you are, you get your heart broken daily.
I don't want to be an artist, go on tour and make a video and wear sexy clothes. I would just love to make music.
I realize my need to be liked or my need for strangers to rate me well, even with their words and their thoughts, I'm not alone in that, and the whole thing is set up culturally so we feel that way.
Music breaks my heart constantly.
Marriage feels like an industry with catering and really expensive bands.
I don't like expectations.
I have a lot of girl friends who are very adept at making friends, and guys are just not.
Caring about what people think of me decreases everyday.
Just because a situation is grim doesn't mean you don't have every right to smile.
I think that women are powerful and they're multifaceted and they're survivors; they don't have to depend on a man to do the things they needed them to do, whether it was hunting or lifting heavy things, so what's a man's place now? Who knows!
