My mama is my best friend. We have fun, we can talk about anything, she always is on my side but really quick to tell me when I'm wrong. That's a true friend. She's loyal, smart, witty and intelligent. She loves family and loves to travel. All the things I love!

When onstage, I always try to take my audience through as many emotions as I possibly can. I want them to go from laughter to tears, be shocked and surprised and walk out the door with a renewed sense of themselves - and maybe a smile.

I'm open to any kind of situation in a song as long as it touches my heart.

I think it's the way I talk. I think they thought I was too country. And I'm not ashamed of that by any means.

And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.

To me, there's two types of songs, good and bad. And I just like to stick with the good ones.

Easter is very important to me, it's a second chance.
