I'm not concerned with people seeing me in a certain way. Some people see me as a kid, some people see me as an adult. But I'm seriously not going to complain how anybody sees me, as long as they see me.

being open isn't the same as being weak.

I think that personality traits that come through when somebody is really sincere is what makes them beautiful.

Given that everyone is giving you their own opinion about him, I think the only opinion you should listen to is yours.

'The Story of Us' is about running into someone I had been in a relationship with at an awards show, and we were seated a few seats away from each other. I just wanted to say to him, 'Is this killing you? Because it's killing me.' But I didn't. Because I couldn't. Because we both had these silent shields up.

I do not need some guy around in order to get inspiration, in order to make a great record, in order to live my life, in order to feel okay about myself. And I wanted to show my fans the same thing.

The only thing I can't control is the spin in the press. And so if I know I can't control that, I have to let it go.
