I grew up in the Bible Belt and I made my own clothes and dyed my hair purple. Nobody ever knew what to do with me.
I write about what I'm going through.
I'm not saying I look cool, but every single time I go onstage, it is a fail if I don't feel like I'm going to pass out at least twice.
I think people should give in to what they feel like doing at the time and be a raw animal.
I'm writing constantly about all my crazy experiences across the world, so I have a lot of music I've already written.
When you're around me, you're going to get glitter on you.
Every weird thing about you is beautiful and makes life interesting.
Everything I write is based on something I've personally experienced, or things that my friends have experienced that I just find horribly entertaining.
I do think I have a rebellious, metal-loving rock chick inside of me.
I understand I'm supposed to be feminine and dainty, but I'm not. There are two sides to the coin. People are more impressed with things that I do because they almost treat you as if you're handicapped if you're a woman... people can be impressed that I can play a few chords on the guitar.
Glitter is my makeup of choice.
I've done the country, done the pop-rock, done the super-hard electro.
You're an animal, you live, maybe this one time is your lifetime - go there. Who cares what somebody else thinks?
Just because I'm sassy and have a mouth on me doesn't mean I'm coming from a negative place.
I'm responsible.
There is no correlation between happiness and amounts of money.
I went through awkward, chubby, total weirdo phases.
It can bum you out when your intentions aren't, like, translated properly.
You have to have a sense of humor about life to get through it.
I have rock 'n' roll pumping through my veins.
I've always been into bearded dudes.
I've always been loud and obnoxious and sneaking my way into things, and so I feel like I've snuck my way onto the Lollapalooza lineup, and I'm going to sneak my way into whatever else I get to do.
I plan on making a lot more records, and hopefully one of them will be Grammy worthy.
I don't go to clubs.
My mother taught me how to write.
I wanted to make youthful, irreverent anthems. Parents might not get it, but kids would.
I have haters. I have so many haters.
I think I am really irreverent and I pretty much just talk to and about men the way men talk to and about women.
I just like playing with makeup and clothes - so I really don't feel like there are rules, and if there are rules, then I think it's up to you to break them.
I'm over dudes trying to look like they're in boy bands.
It's about time that society accepts people for who they are.
I can't walk in high heels, never mind dance in them.
I do have a stylist who helps me shop, because I don't have time to shop.
You really can't stereotype people or put them in boxes, it's unfair.
I'm just very amused by five-year-old humor.
All men that date me have to know that their name may end up in a pop song.
