Some people think you have more privileges than other teenagers because of what you do, and that's not it at all. It's actually the opposite.

So many people say, "I'm a good person!" Like, why are you a good person? To be a good person you have to actively be good.

My life feels so surreal. That's why I've made a shtick of being me.

I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people.

I like being the girl nobody can have.

I cut the ribbon in Paris, and everyone in Paris speaks French — maybe you knew that. But I'm from Tennessee, and Tennessee girls don't speak French. So suddenly I'm stuck onstage with Minnie and Mickey and everyone is yelling at me in French — I guess they're telling me to get off the stage, but I didn't know what they were saying at the time, so I start dancing with Minnie and Mickey like on the show and finally my aunt comes and gets me off.

There are so many people that have come up to me during our shows and tell me: 'The hour that we are watching your show is the hour that my kids are happiest and are smiling, they are laughing,' and that is what I long to do.
