I think I'm a very kindhearted person, I don't like to hurt people's feelings. If I do, it's not intentionally and I feel a lot of people nowadays have lost that.
Who says, who says you're not perfect? Who says you're not worth it? Who says you're the only one that's hurting? Trust me, that's the price of beauty, who says you're not pretty? Who says you're not beautiful?... Who says?
I get so mad about ex-boyfriends, but if a boy hurts me, I don't write a song about it. They don't deserve it!
I love that I can stay connected with my fans and be able to tell them what's going on - their opinions are so important to me. But at the same time, it's very weird. I think the Internet can be a great thing but also really evil. Something can instantly hurt your feelings.
I'm human, so of course certain things sometimes hurt. I just laugh at it.
There's one thing I do wanna say. It's that every single one of you are just beautiful the way you are, every message that I get from you guys it just hurts me. Beacuse , if there is one person who knows what its like to get bullied, I get bullied a lot but you guys are so beautiful, please don't listen to any of that, ever, ever, ever from your school, from anything. You guys are perfect
Music is not a very stable business. It comes and it goes, and so does money, but your education stays with you for the rest of your life. When you have that education, and you have nothing to fall back on, you can get a get a job anywhere.
When a child does bad things, the parents are always going to love their child even if they do something bad.
When love hits you, it hits you and you don't expect it.
When I'm singing, I'm another person. I can be really free, in the sense that I can do whatever I want.
When I am singing, I believe that if I respect the public, then they will respect me, and I know it. It's noticeable.
What's really cool about our family is that we don't hold grudges, and I think that is what's been the key to the success. We get into our little disagreements, and whether we're right or wrong, we'll go and apologize. That's just the way we are.
If you have a dream, don't let anybody take it away, and always believe that the impossible is possible.
If you try to come off as this big-time star with an attitude, people don't like that.
