My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more. I'll be different sizes all the time.

I do cardio. I run. I strength-train using my own body weight. I don't like free weights, because I build muscle easily.

Pick the weeds and keep the flowers.

I know a lot of artists say, `If you want your song on my record, I get 50 per cent' I'd like to kick them in the face.

And more so now, since having a family - I don't seek out any other acceptance.

My friends and family are my support system. They tell me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear and they are there for me in the good and bad times. Without them I have no idea where I would be and I know that their love for me is what's keeping my head above the water.

Really, what I try to instill in my fans is to be healthy and happy. I have no desire to be super-skinny.
