Becoming famous was never what I wanted to do. There's a lot of things that come with fame - it's what people in the limelight have to do.

People can hear my songs are coming from something real. I mean what I say; I'm not just writing to impress critics or young girls, or older girls. The way I talk is the way I write a song.

I want there to be a piece of me in my music, you know? I genuinely believe that's the secret of all the success that's happened (for me).

I just know that I'm a fan of all different kinds of genres. You're supposed to be free doing music, and that's how I feel.

Hawaii is paradise. It sounds cheesy to say it, but there's music in the air there.

When everything in life gets so complicated it only takes a day to change it

I know I'm probably much too late to try and apologize for my mistakes.
