I like my body so much better after I had kids. Is that a crazy thing to say? I'm more womanly. I feel sexier.

To play June, I had an immediate connect with her background and culture. We grew up with the same religion and shared a lot of the same values of family and spirituality. But I was really so inspired by what a modern woman she was.

And I think Taylor Swift is just an exemplary young lady. It's kind of interesting to see what a profound songwriter she is. I don't even think anyone has realized, the long term is going to be the bigger revelation. It's incredible how quickly she writes songs. We've hung out a couple times, we live near each other in Nashville.

My rule is, if it's not moving-monogram it!

I feel very blessed to have two wonderful, healthy children who keep me completely grounded, sane and throw up on my shoes just before I go to an awards show just so I know to keep it real.

Confidence is everything in this business.

I traveled all over the South looking for factories - to keep production in the South. I wanted to give back to the place and people that raised me.
