When I meet somebody, I hang out with them, and it's all good, but I don't take it too seriously

I've always been heavily engaged with my fans on the internet from day one. That connection's one of the reasons why I've been able to enjoy such longevity in my career.

My advice to someone to follow in my footsteps is to have patience. I've been doing this for twelve years.

I enjoy being happy every day, and hopefully you can hear my happiness in my music. Life is beautiful.

The sun won't shine since you went away, seems like the rain's falling every day. There's just one heart, where there once was two; that's the way it's gotta be until I get over you.

There hasn't been one highlight that stands out... but touring and performing has been great.

My mom was a cheerleader and had me as a teenager. I remember her giving me some pom-poms and teaching me how to do some splits when I was 3 or 4.
