It's like Forrest Gump said, 'Life is like a box of chocolates.' Your career is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get. But everything you get is going to teach you something along the way and make you the person you are today. That's the exciting part - it's an adventure in itself.

I really enjoy making different types of music than I do with the Backstreet Boys.

I think that all of the scars and all of the layers that I've built over the years made me the person that I am today, and I'm pretty happy about that person.

I remember pogs and sticky hands. I remember both. I wanted to get into pogs. I remember it was, like, all of a sudden it was here, then gone.

I never hang my feet off the end of the bed -I'm afraid little gremlins will bite my toes! Really!

The last person I'd date is some rich kid who's had everything handed to her on a plate. Give me a normal girl any day.

Don't ever let anyone else write your story for you.
