One of the things people don't really recognise about the similarities between country and hip-hop is that they're celebrations of pride in a lifestyle.

In the beginning I remember when I would spend three hours a day on MySpace just trying to comment everyone back, and now, I spend a half hour a night on MySpace just putting up new stuff and answering people back and monitoring all the fan sites, and saying hi and thank you. I'm still way on top of it. I haven't grown out of it because it'll always be something that helped launch my career, and I'm going to keep maintaining it.

Here's what I've learned about deal-breakers. If you have enough natural chemistry with someone, you overlook every single thing that you said would break the deal.

In the middle of the night When I'm in this dream It's like a million little stars Spelling out your name

Where is the video of Kanye [West] telling me he was going to call me 'that b***h' in his song? It doesn't exist because it never happened. You don't get to control someone's emotional response to being called 'that b***h' in front of the entire world.

I wish all teenagers can filter through songs instead of turning to drugs and alcohol.

I don’t think I was born to be in the club. Just to throw that out there.
