I consider myself not a celebrity. I'm a normal person that likes [doing] things on stage.

I've been surfing once in my entire life and I wasn't terrible at it, but my love for music is like the Hamilton family loves water. I understand it - but I'll stick to music.

I don’t know why terrible things happen to us sometimes. But I have to believe that something good is going to come of this.

When I got into all the grunge stuff, I really liked Hole. I actually saw them in concert when I was a sophomore in high school. It was kind of rare to see a successful female rocker get down and dirty with the guys. And Courtney Love did. It was fun to be a fan of something different.

Brad Paisley has always been really great to me, and that's no secret.

I honestly in a lot of ways don't want to sing about my real life, because that's private.

I always wanted to be married for a little while before a baby. You know what? It does make me choose my wardrobe differently because if I wear something a little baggy, I'm like, "No, it looks like I'm having a baby!"
