I got a record deal with Sony, and I really just put acting aside. But it's a love.

Success was one of my weakest points. I was so ill-prepared for it. I never appreciated within myself the gift of success. I never accepted it. People gave me so much momentum and love, and people really got my music, but I didn't accept it. That's probably one of my biggest regrets.

I'm not the kind that could lead the millionaire lifestyle. I've got a truck, and I've got my bike. I've got a lovely Labrador and two kitty-cats. I live very modestly.

I don't want to date. But I do have dreams about a great love.

Marriage is a walk in the park compared to being a single mother or father. I'll take that walk later.
