“I have the world’s worst pregnancies.”

I was on Ghetto Idol. We didn’t have any of the stuff they have now.

I go to bed every night and the list of what I’ve accomplished is astounding.

Pick the weeds and keep the flowers.

There is no greater feeling than hanging out with my dogs, or just walking around the land with our horses. My rescue ranch is is where I feel the most at peace and where I’m reminded of the simple things in life and let the chaos of my crazy work life fade away.

My winning is getting to perform. That’s my victory.

I’ve dated a couple of guys who were awesome, and the celebrity part of my life and the traveling part are hard to get around. You never get to see each other, especially if you’re both musicians.

I’ve always been about less government.

No matter what size I am I love performing no matter how big or little I am! I feel good.

I feel like you can be the best role model by being yourself.

You need to be happy with who you are and, whoever that is, let your little light shine.

I was in a very dark place for a long time. It’s just so hard to have normalcy.

Music isn’t just heard, it is felt.

I’m from a small town where everybody always has something to say – you shouldn’t sing secular music, you shouldn’t do this or do that. A ton of “shouldn’ts.”

I’m thankful For the blessing And the lessons that I’ve learned with you By my side

When I’m picking songs for an album I always want a song that I can relate to and that I have experienced. There’s nothing worse than watching an artist try and sell a song that isn’t believable coming from them.

I sound the same regardless if I’m 20 pounds heavier or 20 pounds light, and I think that’s the key thing with my fans and why they continue to be loyal because I’m that type of person.
