I write a lot on airplanes actually because it's completely isolating; there's no one to talk to, there's nothing to do. And then I think a lot of it sort of comes out sitting down with the people I'm co-writing with and talking to them about what I'm going through and what I want to say. It just sort of happens; every song came about in a completely different yet organic way.

It's so different going in the studio and singing your own music and you don't really think about making sure that the message of the song or the idea behind the song comes across to people. Because it's in your head, it's in your heart, whatever, but it's... different when you're playing a character and you're singing as the character. There's just a lot more involved in that, I guess.

I love film, but it's bringing me away from music. Singing is what I'm probably most passionate about.

I just don't want to be known as the actress who can sing. I want to be known as the singer who can act, too. It's great cross-promotion.

I love music and I guess I have less expectations or pressure to kind of put on myself because the music hasn't been some huge sensation.

Hope is the most exciting thing there is in life.

I don't cook very well at all. I'm the girl that can't make scrambled eggs.
