I was the girl who didn’t get invited to parties.

I would love to sign on to do a movie if it was the right role and if it was the right script, because I would be taking time away from music to tell a big grand story, and spend all of my time and pouring all of my emotions into being someone else. So for me to do that, it would have to be a story worth telling.

The only way I hear gossip is if it's big enough and loud enough for my friends to bring it up to me. Or if it's, like, a big untrue ordeal from my publicist - and she hates making that phone call!

Country radio is much more like a family than any other group of people that I've met.

Unique and different is the next generation of beautiful.

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

Don't ever call a guy first. The thing they want the most is whatever they can't have. It sounds really juvenile, but it works.
