I love that Euro-pop dance music, but with girl power. I also listen to Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan. I have a Beatles song tattooed on my foot. I'm all over the place.
So many schools are getting rid of music programs and it's really sad because I know that when I started singing and stuff it was something that I always wanted to do and I never believed in myself to be able to do it.
I love Natalie Portman. She worked when she was younger, and she's so talented and private. She doesn't do things that are too crazy, but she pushes the envelope enough.
As a mom, it's so important to feel confident in what you're doing.
It's hard to stay true to yourself and what you want in life when there are so many distractions and so much craziness going on around you.
My relationship with my mom is so amazing. We never got to have that stage that people go through, like when you're 13 and you think you're too cool for your parents. When you're embarrassed by them and stuff. We never went through that because I was constantly working and she constantly had to be there.
Everybody always talks about it, about how you don't know love until you meet your baby, and you really feel that. There are no words. It was a really wonderful surprise. And there is no way to prepare yourself for the sleep deprivation and what comes with it.
Weird, but sometimes I feel more like my cartoon character than I do Lizzie because she's a little more edgy and snappy.
I ate a bug once. It was flying around me. I was trying to get it away. It went right in my mouth. It was so gross!
I started taking singing classes just two years ago. It was great. I never knew I could sing but I kind of found my voice.
I knew I wanted to act, and I was really driven, so I kept going for it. We moved to L.A. full-time when I was 8 or 9.
I also love Dido and Nelly Furtado and people who are really into their music like that. And I love Renee Zellweger.
Now my music is kind of pop-rock, right? If I'm 25 and singing still, I don't want to be singing music like that.
People talk worse about people than they talk good about people, because a lot of people like drama.
I pop gum. My parents get so annoyed with me. I know my dad wishes he never taught me how to do that.
I love clothes. I can't control myself. I have a huge fetish for shoes and clothes and make-up. I'm the kind of person who doesn't like to wear things over and over again.
I know I can handle dramatic roles, but I don't think I should have to play a young mother on crack to prove it.
I'm drawing the gossip surrounding the celebrity, or the image the celebrity tries to push on us.
When I'm on tour, I'm in a new city every single night, and the energy and the crowds and the kids and the screaming and them knowing every single word of my music and being onstage is such an energetic feeling with a big payoff.
I have an older sister named Haley and she wanted to be an actress. So I wanted to be an actress. It's really funny the way that some people don't give kids enough credit for like really being driven, and really wanting to do things so badly.
