I got to play Kim in Bye Bye Birdie, Sandy in Grease, and Maria in The Sound of Music. And it was so much fun for me, but the thing that I looked forward to the most was at the cast parties. After the shows they had karaoke machines set up and that's when I could sing country music.

I daydreamed that when you grow up there are more bullies and how wonderful that would be if it were true, but, it's not.

Every time i try and wink at someone, I mess it up and end up scaring people.

I realized that I have very long arms so I can take the perfect arm-length picture with fans

People haven't always been there for me, but music always has.

I need that unexplainable spark. I need to see someone and feel 'oh-oh'. It's only happened a few times in my life.

We don’t just live in a celebrity take-down culture; we live in a take-down culture. People will find anything about you and twist it to where it’s weird or wrong or annoying or strange or bad. You have to live your life not only in spite of people who don’t understand you - you have to have more fun than they do.
