I believe in horoscopes. I was born under the sign of the Ram, which means I'm headstrong, don't like people telling me what to do.

When I'd tell people I like country music they'd get this look on their faces. People were kind of ashamed of country.

All music is based on country music. And that's why so many different kinds of people relate to it. There are more country music fans in New Jersey than there are down South.

I won all the blue ribbons for canning at the state fair.

There's more women stars in Nashville all the time. They're proving they can do the job the same as a man.

How do you measure your value?

You either have to be first, best, or different.
