There's always a positive to those negative times, because you come out of it so much stronger and wiser. Strength comes from every hardship, and it's been a lesson for me.

Don't let anything morph you or push you around or have you be something you're not.

After all you've put me through, you would think I despise you, but in the end I want to thank you because you made me that much stronger.

Toward the end of my pregnancy, I felt really big - I gained about 40 pounds, which is a lot for my size.

I think it's really great when you stand up for something that you really believe, even if you get heat for it.

The schedule is crazy - it's all suitcases and hotel rooms and you just go nonstop. It's a crazy lifestyle, it really is.

I'm very eclectic in what I like and what I listen to. But my favorite musical ever is "The Sound of Music." That was actually one that inspired me to sing.
