There's more to life than dating the boy on the football team.

I think every girl's dream is to find a bad boy at the right time, when he wants to not be bad anymore.

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

I've been careful in love. I've been careless in love. And I've had adventures I wouldn't trade for anything.

I don't talk about my personal life in great detail. I write about it in my songs, and I feel like you can share enough about your life in your music to let people know what you're going through.

When I was a teenager, my biggest lessons came from Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, George Strait, Rascal Flatts and Brad Paisley. I learned so much from opening up for those artists, and it also taught me how to treat your opening acts and make them feel like they're part of a family, not just a tour.

I think I've developed, as many people do, this sense of, 'Don't say the wrong thing, or else people will point at you and laugh.'
