My job is intense. It's very physical.

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.

A lot of the songs I've recorded are songs I write.

My parents taught me I could be anything in the world I wanted to be.

I think it's important to have mystique.

I do not knowingly kill any living thing - including insects or rodents - and I thank my food for sustaining me.

In pop music, you say, 'You can do what you want to me.' Rock 'n' roll says, 'I'm gonna do what I want to you.'
