The truth is, I initially became a singer-songwriter while still in my teens because it was the only way to guarantee that somebody on earth would sing the songs I was writing. Since then, I've performed just about everywhere: rock clubs, concerts halls, arenas, TV. ↗

I just don't want to be known as the actress who can sing. I want to be known as the singer who can act, too. It's great cross-promotion. ↗

I was a kid from Oklahoma who never wanted to be a singer, but was told I could sing. And things snowballed. ↗
