I always try to be very human in my performances and hang out with my fans. It is cool to be a celebrity, but at the end of the day I want to empower my audience and say, 'Hey, I am just like you.

I've always been a really really big Sheryl Crow fan. I just respect what she does in a way that she just remains true to her music and sort of has just been real. She isn't trying too hard ever.

I never thought then I'd be doing what I'm doing now. At my high school, being on the girls soccer team was the cool thing to do, but that was definitely never going to happen for me, so I played music. Not because everyone thought it was awesome, but for the love of it.

I am kind of majoring in bull shitting.

I used to bring my sketchbook to gym class and doodle, because I am a very uncoordinated athlete.

I think just being on 'One Tree Hill' has given me a lot of confidence.

I like to perform live like we're all just hanging out in my living room. I'm totally casual and informal on stage.
