By the second tour I had rice cakes and hummus with me, and I was jumping rope in my room.

My first tour I was on the road for 18 months. You're just out there promoting.

I've had enough boyfriends and enough issues. I'd seen enough train wrecks.

When I first came out, like a lot of the artists at that time, I had a very polished, very overproduced sound.

Well, honey, I had the million dollar houses, I had the car, I had the horse, I had the barn; I had everything. Was I set free? I didn't even know what that meant.

I came out the box and for seven years I had a huge career. And then it's done, it's dumped. But I ain't gone, and I refuse to be gone.
