My mother is very emotional as well, but my dad is more of the guts of the family. He was the main preacher, so he kind of had this little Pentecostal flair, but they are born-again.

I’m not Buddhist, I’m not Hindu, I’m not Christian, but I still feel like I have a deep connection with God.

There are times I go out and meet people and flirt, but it's not really appropriate to have anything serious.

I guess I prefer to play live, but I don't want to have only live CDs. I like playing live because there are alot of things that can happen. I can interact with the audience and say some things to get me in trouble. On the other hand, the studio is nice because you can really take your time and make something that you know is the best thing that you can ever do. But nothing beats being up on stage in front of all that energy.

Maybe I'm competitive. I just feel like I have this gift that I've been given. It's like, "Someone unwrap it! Here it is!" That drive can't be held down. I have a lot of ambition.

I'm a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect.

I'm just singing about my own life. Singing about all the little stories in my life and the things I've been through.
