My mother was the first singer I had contact with. She sang constantly to us around the house, in church.

I'm not crazy about arenas just because I can sell them out. It doesn't do anything for my ego at all. I want to play places where people don't have to sit in the nosebleed seats and wonder what the hell is going on.

Nobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.

I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.

I love to sing, but it's just not fun anymore.

I have a mother that's very strong and family that surround me and constantly tell me they love me.

What's in your soul is in your soul.
