I just like to stay creative. Anything that can keep my mind going.

You have to break your fingers to learn how to play guitar.

I don't really start writing until later in the night. I'm a night owl.

I'm young. You can't just sit there and be satisfied. People are like, "You've got all these number ones!" "Yeah...what else?" It all translates into money, and that's how people think of being successful, but my success, I feel like, is credit - credit for a good job. I haven't even gotten a Grammy, yet I've already decided I want an Emmy.

I try to reach for the stars because if you say you want something small and it happens, you don't believe it. So I try to say something wild and crazy.

I like interior decorating. I really like to build houses. And landscaping, I like that.

I've done so much songwriting and I know how to do it.
