One day. my kids are gonna be like, 'What do you mean, gay people couldn't get married?' Just like most of my friends are black, and I find it hard to believe that my great-grandmother and even my grandmother couldn't hang out with black kids when they were young.

You don't have to go out and party every night. You can act because it's your dream.

I need more friends. It's kind of like my quest right now just to have more true friends.

Everything on the radio is metaphorical in a bad way. But when I write a lyric, like "bang my box," that's pretty clear.

When there's a thing you have to do, you have to do it.

I've never been that person to fake it, and say what everyone else wants you to say. Then you never have anything personal. If I wanted to be an actress all the time, I could do that. But I don't. I want to be real. I want to be a real person. That's what an artist is. An artist has to be honest. Without honesty, there's nothing.

I like being the girl nobody can have.
