I don't really care if you think I'm strange--I ain't gonna change!

If you are gonna live your life, just try to not be crazy, have fun but have some focus and some purpose and try to know what that is. If you don't know now, try to figure it out.

The most important thing is being genuine, and real, and not getting caught up in the "Star-Ness" of it. You don't want to act like a star around other people. You have to watch it, and you want to stay grounded, it's very important, and that's probably what I have learned most because you definitely have opportunities to let your ego run wild and you have to keep your ego in check.

I've done some acting and a lot of different things, but mostly it's the music.

I don't really care if you think I'm strange--I ain't gonna change!

When you're singing songs about love and sex, you want everyone to think you're singing to them. Whether you're a boy, a girl, a woman, a man - whatever you're into, I can be that.

You want to have butterflies in your stomach, because if you don't, if you walk out onstage complacent, that's not a good thing.
