I was very protective of my father and I didn't like these people who hung around outside all day. They creeped me out.

I've never even been out of my BMI range. I'm 5-foot-3. If I gain five pounds, it shows.

Something happens to people around fame and power and money - it can bring out the worst and best in people; it's a monster you have to tame.

I've been through so much in my life. I've seen so much. I know how fast things can change. I know someone can be here one minute and gone the next.

I knew that because of who I am, and the situation I'm in, that I'd attract more critics than your average person, and that was a little intimidating, but I wanted to get out there and pay my dues.

Anytime I was in Memphis with my dad and at the house, I was happy. That was, like, a given. It was what I lived for. And I still feel the same excitement and warmth.

Were it not for Scientology, I would either be completely insane or dead by now.
