I keep reading about people who want to be famous - it's not that they want to be great songwriters or great actors, they want to be celebrities. That is scary because you can be famous doing some really stupid things.

These days, with 'American Idol' and all the other reality shows, young people become famous overnight, and that can be very difficult to handle, the way photographers follow you around and study your every move.

No one person or material thing could ever come close to the feeling I get when the music is right.

Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time.

I think the people who are out there for fame get themselves in a lot of trouble.

My hair was slicked down with a part. But that was before I discovered the blow-dryer. Now I'm fabulous.

I think my music is like anchovies - some people like it, some people get nauseous.
