For the first five years of music and first five years of acting, I don't remember it because I was running to where I was going. Finally I was like, 'Man, I missed everything.' So I just stopped, and I started looking around.

I got my first acting role because I was a singer.

I have long hair because I'm American Indian. I'm an Oklahoma boy, and I'm very proud of my heritage.

I grew up with action movies in my head.

When you're playing country music, you have to tell the truth.

When I'm writing songs, I write visually. When I'm writing the words down and I listen to the melody and the lyrics, I start seeing the video form. And if I can get through a song and from the beginning to the end have the whole video in my mind, I think that's a great song.

I don't know if I could write songs if it wasn't for the female race, to be honest with you.
