I think it's great if a guy has a good sized package.
I wanted to be on my own and get out of the house. We were the kind of kids that - we - obeyed our parents. If they said no, you don't ask why.
You can't hold the record forever, and I know that. I'm not stupid.
Ever since I was little, I loved to eat. I started eating when I wasn't hungry. My weight has always been up and down.
Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.
I am not a religious person, but I am spiritual. But I don't believe in things like guilt.
I don't like to work out, and I get bored easily.
A lot of people who start work at a very young age never grow up because they never got that opportunity to be a child, so they hold on to that and still do a lot of childish, silly things.
I've talked about sex a great deal in my music for a great while now. I feel very comfortable with it.
I'm happy with the people that I have around me. And they've been friends of mine since I was young, for a very long time.
My concepts are never bright ideas; they're never notions I think will sell or be trendy or attract new fans. I don't think that way. All I can do is sing from my life.
I feel everyone is put here for a reason. Everyone has a calling. I always thought my real calling was to help other people.
My brothers were gone on tour a lot, and I would miss them so much.
Some of my battles with weight have been very public. But most of them have been internal. Even at my thinnest, when my body was being praised, I wasn't happy with what I saw in the mirror or how I felt about myself.
I'm fine the way I am. There's nothing wrong with me.
I was two when we left Indiana, and I don't really remember it that well.
I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good.
When I'm getting ready for a tour, I'll work out with the dancers.
I think people really connect with the idea of someone who's gained and lost weight in this very public way, and also someone who's an emotional eater.
I kinda see everyone as competition.
When I'm feeling down on myself or not feeling good about who I am, or maybe something happened and I'm feeling depressed, I eat to fill that void. Afterwards I'll beat myself up about it. I regret doing it, but I'll turn around and do it again.
Control meant not only taking care of myself but living in a much less protected world. And doing that meant growing a tough skin.
I am the baby in the family, and I always will be. I am actually very happy to have that position. But I still get teased. I don't mind that.
We all have the need to feel special.
There is a moment when you get older when your metabolism slows down and you don't feel like working out any more, so you don't want to keep yourself fit any more, but that's your decision. Why should you be judged for it?
