I'd like to do a tour with a bunch of people where it's just them and their guitars. It would be like Lilith Fair - only everyone plays alone, and it would be competitive.

I am just like you and everyone else. I am trying to live my life as best I can.

I am a feminist, and I define myself: Be yourself, because if you can get away with it, that is the ultimate feminist act.

I wear clothes that most people in the Midwest would probably deem inappropriate at my age. And I rock a bikini all summer long. I know that it's not normal, but I just don't care. I live once.

No. You know what really bugs me about my videos? When they can't figure out what to do, they just have me change clothes five times.

The big news already broke. The file-sharing and all that stuff, it's a done deal. And I think figuring out how to make that a fair exchange for the people that make music is still an issue

Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.
