The problem was, I was labeled as trouble - so I was like, 'Trouble? I'll show you trouble. You want trouble, well here it is!' No matter what label they give you, the best thing you can do is prove them wrong.

Once you figure out what respect tastes like, it tastes better than attention. But you have to get there.

I'd rather bleed with cuts of love than live without any scars.

We hate so fast and we love too slow

I've always loved to prove people wrong. I want to be able to cross color lines, because in music, there really is no barrier.

I'm very involved with PETA - People for Ethical Treatment of Animals - and Greenpeace and a lot of women's shelter and clothing giveaways.

I've always felt that animals are the purest spirits in the world. They don't fake or hide their feelings, and they are the most loyal creatures on Earth. And somehow we humans think we're smarter-what a joke.
