When my phone pops up with Dierks Bentley, I'm like, 'Oh my gosh!! Okay, wait. He's supposed to be, like, my friend. I'm supposed to be cool.'

I'm cool with Jay-Z. Jay-Z is genuinely my friend.

I like to look good, my friend.

Michael is not only my friend, he's my family.

Saul Bellow never took my advice when he was my friend.

At first, I did have that thought, like, 'Oh crap, what are we going to do after?' Then I realized 'Girl in a Country Song' was an honest, truthful song, and we were telling our truth, and that's all we have to do - write songs that are true and tell our stories.
