I was in a very dark place for a long time. It's just so hard to have normalcy.

I've never been more nervous in my life than singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

Life's too short to be a pushover.

I wish I had a better metabolism. But someone else probably wishes they could walk into a room and make friends with everyone like I can. You always want what someone else has.

I'm very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I'm that cookie-cutter. I don't live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there's no paparazzi there.

I've got a song on One Direction's album called 'Tell Me A Lie'. It's a really cute song - I love it. I loved that they liked it. They sound really great on it. I already have it - I'm so VIP with my copy on my computer! It does sound really good.

I sing songs that I have lived or I write them because I have lived them. I think the believability factor is key.
