I've made sure that in any situation and with any record label, I'm allowed to write my own music.

If you're lucky enough to have something that makes you different, don't ever change.

I've wanted one thing in my life. I don't want to be that girl that gets that one thing then complains.

My first memory of loving music happened so early. We would always go to the beach in the summer and I would run from blanket to blanket, from family to family and just sing Lion King songs acapella.

We wrote a song, while sitting on a trampoline & we loved it so much that we ended up recording it as a duet

Sometimes in love it just gets to the point where I have to give up. I have to give up trying and I have to give up believing because I know things won't change. To me, giving up isn't being weak. Giving up is being strong enough to let go.

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.
