If you like my music, great, and if you don't, whatever. I'm going to keep making it either way. ↗

My dad would give me $10, which is a lot of money when you're 9, to sing at church, on tables at restaurants, at family functions, just about anywhere. ↗

My parents are very quirky, eccentric. They have their own world. ↗

It's not an easy journey, to get to a place where you forgive people. But it is such a powerful place, because it frees you. ↗

My singing is really important to me, but when children come along they'll be my main focus. I'd never put my career in front of my babies - it'd be a case of fitting jobs around them. ↗

Not to sound overly cheesy but I really appreciate the freedom we have in America - especially as a female. ↗

Oh, I will always be honest with my music. The records are black boxes for me. Like if you want to know who I am, my views, my perspective, things I love, things I hate, my convictions, my anthems. I've never let people's opinions affect the way I write. ↗

One thing I can't do, and I hope that there are other people out there that feel the same way, is climb a rope. Oh my gosh, it's so hard to climb rope! It's all about grip and arms. ↗

The media tried to destroy my parents and has taken things completely out of context, but there's not a whole lot you can do in terms of fighting back. You have to hope that it passes, which it always does. But they have to be careful. They didn't necessarily sign up for this. ↗
