I feel like I am a celebrity for no reason, like people are resentful I didn't have to play bars for 10 years to get a record deal.

I love having my hair and makeup done for red carpets, but to have that done every day would be exhausting.

There's not ever much of anything going on in my head.

Above all, God wanted us to love others. We have to love each other and get on with each other, she added. It's not up to me to judge anybody.

As far as subject matter, I'd say most of the songs aren't that personal to me. I love making up characters and kind of having fun in a different kind of way.

My hometown is extremely supportive of me and I feel blessed to be able to create something as a way of giving back; to say thank you.

Figure out what you want, how you want to feel, whatever your motivation is, you have to figure it out. That's step one: where do you want to be? The next thing is just trying to get there and cutting yourself some slack along the way. You're going to have days when you veer off your path, then just get right back on. We all have cheat days, holidays, or celebrations, whatever or period when we can't work out as much as we like, and just do the best you can and when you can get back on track, get back on track.
