Everybody hurts some days. It's okay to be afraid. Everybody hurts, everybody screams. Everybody feels this way.

I'm gonna live today like this is my last day.. :)

Whatever. Everyone mispronounces my name. And, like, David Bowie was big before I was born, right?

I only toured for three months. As soon as I got off [tour], I was just dying to start recording, because it was on my mind: 'I've got to make another record now.' And I was totally excited.

I liked being a minor because you can't get into trouble. Now I just have to try and behave myself.

I was signed by L.A. Reid on Arista Records when I was 16. He understood me and believed in me. Arista folded and I got put on RCA or whatever, then there were new people there, and every six months it changes and more new people come in.

Life is like a roller coaster, live it, be happy, enjoy life.
