The cool thing about reading is that when you read a short story or you read something that takes your mind and expands where your thoughts can go, that's powerful.

When we're falling in love or out of it, that's when we most need a song that says how we feel. Yeah, I write a lot of songs about boys. And I'm very happy to do that.

For me, great music doesn't just have to fall into one category or one genre and I love appreciating all kinds of music.

I never read one hateful thing said about me by some 12-year-old. So I got to live an actual life. And I've kept that mentality. Just because there's a hurricane going on around you doesn't mean you have to open the window and look at it.

I still like to live in a whimsical world that seems more romantic and fantasy-related because real life seems so hard

If somebody hurts you, it's okay to cry a river, just remember to build a bridge and get over it.

If I could go back I wouldn't change anything. If I was popular I would have never left my bubble. I wouldn't have ever tired to do anything different. I would have never become happy.
