I’ve been writing music since I was about eight. I would write sporadically. I wrote a lot of music in high school. I guess the oldest song on the record (“I Thought I Saw Your Face”) is about eight years old.

School Song Writing

I feel there are tone singers, and there are more vocal gymnastics singers. And I think that’s amazing when people can do that, but I think there’s room for the tone singers. And there aren’t a lot of them.

The first job I ever had was singing in a jazz club when I was like 15 with my friend, and we earned like 70 bucks. We were like, ‘Oh my God!’

I have had brown hair and bangs since I was 2. One year I dyed it blonde, which felt so weird.

When I was 13, I wasn’t the coolest kid in my class, and that inner dork is a wonderful thing to have.

I would say I know nothing about the music business, in a nice sort of way. I totally forgot I was in that music video. That’s so funny.

I like playing sort-of-crazy people. There’s something really, really fun about that.

If I could give my teenaged self any advice, it would be ‘Calm down!’

I think that it’s our responsibility to create a world in which girls can grow up and not have to limit their dreams or possibilities.

There are a lot of actresses who are unhealthy-skinny – much, much too skinny. You can’t Pilates to that.
