For me, writing a song, I sit down and the process doesn't really involve me thinking about the demo-graphic of people I'm trying to hit or who I want to be able to relate to the song or what genre of music it falls under.
For me, genres are a way for people to easily categorize music. But it doesn't have to define you. It doesn't have to limit you.
When you walk out onstage in front of 65,000 people, it can bring you to tears.
I'm not really that girl who dreams about her wedding day.
I've always loved Def Leppard, ever since I was little.
But when I hear a great song, I can't help but be inspired by it, regardless of whatever genre that song falls under.
I remember straightening my hair because I wanted to be like everybody else, and now the fact that anybody would emulate what I do? It's just funny.
All of my favorite people - people I really trust - none of them were cool in their younger years.
A lot of the jewelry that I wear are fan gifts because they're so awesome and they give me great presents.
I'm thankful that when I go to bed at night, that I have been myself that day. And, I have been myself all the days before that.
If I could go back I wouldn't change anything. If I was popular I would have never left my bubble. I wouldn't have ever tired to do anything different. I would have never become happy.
You start to realize that the things that are different about you are the things that make you special. And, as cliche as at that sounds, you realize that if you are lucky enough to have something that is different about you...don't try to hide it. I don't try to blend in anymore, it's all about standing out.
Be good to people. Be good to every single person you come into contact with. My best friends are great musicians. But more than that, they're great people.
I can't deal with someone wanting to take a relationship backward or needing space or cheating on you.
