Most of my fans, if you were to look on their iPods, you'd see every possible genre of music represented in some capacity.

As your career grows, the list of things that makes you happy should not become smaller, it should become bigger.

There is nothing wrong with avoiding people who hurt you.

When we're falling in love or out of it, that's when we most need a song that says how we feel. Yeah, I write a lot of songs about boys. And I'm very happy to do that.

What makes me happy is just curling up in with my mom in her bed and watching a marathon of 'CSI' and 'Grey's Anatomy' episodes with pints of ice cream.

I'm not afraid to write my feelings in songs.

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