I decorated my house like a medieval gothic castle, European-style. Chandeliers and red velvet curtains. My bedroom is pink and black, my bathroom is totally Hello Kitty, I have a massive pink couch and a big antique gold cross.
I'm very comfortable with how I look. I always have been. I think I look pretty good. There's nothing I want to change. I'm pretty happy with what I've got.
I have to fight to keep my image really me... I rejected some gorgeous publicity shots because they just didn't look like me.
My songs aren't bubble gum pop dance songs and I don't have background dancers on every single song.
When I tour, I stuff fridges full of organic food and stick to that.
I don't want to have kids for like 10 years. I still have a lot to do. I don't even know if I could handle a dog right now. I'm so not ready. Someday I'll be a mom but not until I'm in my 30s.
Yeah, let's keep the peace going.
I'm just coming out and I'm going to clearly be myself - I write what I feel, I never worry what others think.
I don't fight. I don't believe in it.
When I was 2 my mom said she knew I was going to be a singer. I`ve been performing ever since I was a young kid. So I`ve known I wanted to do this for awhile. I always knew in my heart that I`d be singing.
My mom wouldn`t let me sing `Strawberry Wine` because it had `wine` in it.
I have my own style that happens to be different from everyone else in Hollywood. My inspiration is me.
School teaches you what to do with the rest of your life. I already knew.
I think because I was brought up in a Christian home, I was kind of careful not to swear in my lyrics.
