I have an older sister named Haley and she wanted to be an actress. So I wanted to be an actress. It's really funny the way that some people don't give kids enough credit for like really being driven, and really wanting to do things so badly.

I know I can handle dramatic roles, but I don't think I should have to play a young mother on crack to prove it.

No, I'm not! I'm not a tomboy! I love my makeup! That's not true! I'm not a tomboy!

I think I'm happy with who I am. I don't know if I learned that from other girls or just people in general.

Obviously I want my music on the radio and I want my record to do well, but I also have a totally different career, so a lot of people who are in music are just in music and can dedicate all their time to that and I can't do that, so I really want to have both things and I'm just trying to figure out how.

You can be edgy without showing off your boobs.

My mom always says, 'If you don't believe in something, you'll lose yourself completely.'
