I'm obsessed with trash TV. I love horrible TV. shows. It's the white trash in me, you know?
I fall in love fast, and I fall out of love even faster.
I used to be afraid to use the word 'pop' to describe my music, but underneath my tough, bad-girl sound, there's some fun.
I think the best music is honest music.
I started with the guitar around 12 years old but didn't learn the banjo until I was about 18 or 19.
I have perfected the art of the mean song to make me feel like I have a backbone.
I have a really supportive, great group of friends, and we all push each other. They come to my shows, I go to their premieres; it's wonderful.
I flip the turntables. I write a lot from the male perspective, but as a female. That's how I live my life. I can roll with the boys.
As for relationships, I know nothing. I'm an idiot; I can't get it right.
I grew up barefoot, dirty, climbing trees. It made me appreciate things more.
I don't like people who are just takers.
I had a beautiful mother and a famous father, and I didn't know where I fit in.
You have to be nice to everybody, and then people want you to succeed.
I followed a guy to Denmark. I came home with a broken heart.
