Usually a family is led through the mom or the dad and their career and for the family to be led by my career, even though God has led it, could be a lot of pressure.
I think I'm extremely vulnerable and that in some ways I seek out rejection. Never feeling like you're getting that pat on the back from dad is probably at the heart of that.
My parents were involved in everything I did. They were showbiz people themselves. My dad was an actor. They were parents; they did what parents are supposed to do.
I had just lost my dad and I remembered all the songs we used to go and hear at concerts, and the records around the house and sometimes we'd play together.
My dad was a surgeon, my mom a nurse, and they were always out working. I had five sisters and a brother. They didn't care what I got up to.
I've been acting since I was 10. My dad was an entrepreneur, so I guess something along those lines. I wouldn't want a 9-5 job.
My dad doesn't get any of my jokes. He laughs at them, but he doesn't understand them. He's just laughing because people around him are laughing.
I dream crazy vivid dreams. Like, entire movies. And sometimes I write songs about them.
I thin many people's deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there's an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted.
I don't talk about who I'm dating because when you break up, you wind up reliving it in the media.
When you really don't like a guy, they're all over you, and as soon as you act like you like them, they're no longer interested.
You don't need to know who I'm dating. You don't need to know what I'm doing. I'm fine with everybody not knowing that.
I'd been dating my husband for about a year, and I'd already kissed George Clooney, Ashton Kutcher and Gerard Butler. Awesome year, right?
Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing.
Dating in Los Angeles can be hard, which makes it all the better when you meet a really nice guy.
I was bullied. I was a bit of a geek. Good-looking guys were off-limits. I didn't start dating until I was 18.
I know some people who've gotten tattoos that they probably shouldn't have, like the name of somebody they were dating, and that never ends well.
I just got off stage playing with Lynyrd Skynyrd a minute ago. It was a great show. Got to meet some incredible guests. This is the bee's knees.
The advice I have for new artists is this - write great songs and play them live as often as possible. Get residencies all over town and crush it.
How do I explain Neil Young? Great question! I explain Neil Young as, I would kill to see his acoustic shows.
I had been on tour with people like Roy Orbison. I knew Bobby Darin, Sam Cooke. So many great performers.
