I believe I could have had a career in the music industry without 'X Factor,' but it was an amazing platform that propelled me to where I am now.
As far as movies, I love 'The Notebook.' I always say that I wish I could play Rachel McAdams' character. She's amazing. That's the movie every girl wants to be in.
If I could live in one city and do every single thing I do there, I would choose Venice. You can't turn your head without seeing something amazing.
My baby is amazing; even his head smells amazing. His breath, the whole thing, you could eat him! He's a big, beautiful boy. He's great.

I enjoy all mediums, and I have to say, music is the medium that first made me understand how powerful art could be.
At the Museum of Roman Art, the logic of the forms is very much modern. But in spite of that, the idea of the construction could be related to a historical time.
I wrote in the 'War of Art' that I could divide my life neatly into two parts: before turning pro and after. After is better.
When we started Angels & Airwaves, we wanted to produce our art on different mediums, but the film was an ambitious one because we actually didn't go into it thinking we could make a big feature film.
