Sometimes you just can't hear yourself. Maybe ears are too close to the mouth.

You always envy someone else's life and, as a woman, you're always comparing your life to someone else's life.

In the South, you don't say exactly what's going on or what's on your mind.

I went to college at North Carolina School of the Arts and took a lot of singing classes, and it really is so connected to emotions.

I've been acting since second grade, telling stories, making my parents laugh here and there, so I'm hoping my "thing" is acting. But I also make a really good bread pudding.

I think that the audience wants to see women being put into real situations where they can relate to them, rather than seeing some glamorous woman in a 'Bond' film.

It's shocking when someone who is really bad thinks they're really good. It's heartbreaking, because singing is such a vulnerable thing to do.
