I'm actively working hard on learning to appreciate yourself no matter what. If what someone else says can easily derail you, it means your sense of self isn't that firmly established in the first place. It's an inside job. You're beautiful and worthy and totally unique. People insult each other based on their own insecurities - even though it may feel personal, it really never is. Really. Seriously.

Confidence is the only key. I know a lot of people who aren't traditionally 'beautiful' - not symmetrical or perfect-bodied or perfect-skinned. But none of that matters because all that shines through is their confidence, humor, and comfort with themselves. I can't think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.

In Hollywood - and indeed, the world - a lot of women only think about themselves in the context of men. It's truly sad.

My life is PG-13 sometimes, and I really want Josh Grogan to propose to me, and he just won't do it.

Nothing lasts forever. Highs, lows, it's all fine. A little gentler with it. Because I really used to think things going well, for some reasons, would be much more terrifying internally than things being a bit chaotic for me.

The only time I flip out is when I'm not prepared. If I'm caught off guard, I can't help it; I start gasping for air.

I guess every musician looks forward to a point where they can just kind of make an album that truly is like a nice art album.
