I respect country music because I feel like it's more about the talent and the songwriting and I put on a big show and we have a lot of stuff, but I feel confident in myself enough as an artist and a singer that I can have all of those fun toys and know that we don't need all the bells and whistles either.

I'm a private person, and I don't want people knowing what kind of underwear I like. It's creepy!

'Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans On' was my anthem as a child. It was about me. I was Baby.

While we're young and beautiful, living free and easy. Here without a worry, dancing in our bare feet because when the summer's done we might not be so young and beautiful.

My mom had a job, and she also took care of us, and she also took care of Dad - I always saw her pulling triple duty, doing more than I ever felt like she needed to. I made a promise to myself that it would be more of a team effort in my family someday. And because of that, I became more independent.

I love being able to perform in front of people. I like potentially making a difference in somebody's day or somebody's life.
