My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

The hardest thing about being in this business is just being able to be yourself. People act like there's this one set of rules to follow to be a pop star and I think, 'Well, you say I'm a pop star, so maybe that's not true.'

I'm actually not a big fan of the word hope. I think it's a depressing word. I don't want to hope - I want to know. Like I don't hope there's a God, I know there's a God.

I go to bed every night and the list of what I've accomplished is astounding.

Now all that's left of me, is what I pretend to be. So together, but so broken up inside.

I don't really exude that 'it' factor.

Everyone says I'm like the girl next door... Y'all must have really weird neighbors!
