God will never give you anything you can’t handle, so don’t stress.
My experiences remind me that it’s those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.
It’s ignorant to think you know everything about a person. There’s many different sides to everybodys personality and there’s just different colours to a personality.
The hardest thing about being in this business is just being able to be yourself. People act like there’s this one set of rules to follow to be a pop star and I think, ‘Well, you say I’m a pop star, so maybe that’s not true.’
I’m actually not a big fan of the word hope. I think it’s a depressing word. I don’t want to hope – I want to know. Like I don’t hope there’s a God, I know there’s a God.
I’m cute – and God I hate that. Because that’s not cool. I’m like your niece, and nobody wants to date their niece. It’s the chubby cheeks. The whole reason people voted for me on American Idol is because I’m an everyday, normal girl.
The thing about Christmas is that it almost doesn’t matter what mood you’re in or what kind of a year you’ve had – it’s a fresh start.
I love healthy stuff and junk an equal amount. Whatever I’m craving, I go for it. I’m never trying to lose weight – or gain it. I’m just being.
I just had my 30th birthday and we went turkey shooting. It’s what I wanted to do, so we went.
I’m always going to live in Texas. Texas is my home – it’ll be my home forever.
I still watch ‘Idol,’ and it’s still the No. 1 show, so obviously I’m not the only one who loves to sit at home and be entertained.
