I was 5 when I won my first song and dance competition, and my parents asked me if that is what I wanted to do, and I said, "Yeah." At 5, how can you know that? On some level, I knew that was my gift.

The world when I was 13 wasn't truly driven by tabloid magazines and social media and reality shows. I was able to have a little more of a private life.

I never really had any friends my age. I've grown up in the adult world all my life.

When I first came out with Blue, everyone compared me to Patsy Cline, which is the biggest honor, 'cause I've always looked up to her.

I need honor in my life from somebody playing for keeps.

I don't earn my money from trying to hurt people or get in the tabloids.

Health to me is an overall mind, body, and kind of spirit thing.
