You get built up and put on a pedestal and then people want to bring you down. It can be hurtful. Some people try to make me look bad or not a nice person but it's completely false.

A lot of my songs are personal and about me being 16 and having guys break my heart and feeling like it's the end of the world.

I think because I was brought up in a Christian home, I was kind of careful not to swear in my lyrics.

We have parties at my house. My girlfriends and I play our iPods, with all of our favorite songs. We pick our songs and jump up on the counter and dance, and do runway stuff, and we take video with my camera. When I'm with my girlfriends, I act like I'm 19.

No one really knows what I'm really like, and you won't unless you spend a day with me, or if you're my friend. No one ever knows what anyone is really like. Read all the interviews you want on them, it's just the media talking and you can't really get to know someone that way, obviously.

I would describe my music and my sound as… Avril Lavigne!

I love being in the studio. It's really great. I like it a lot. But of course, I like performing more. But when I'm in the studio mode, it's cool. I like to really focus on it.
