A lot of the music I listen to is indie rock. It's not on the radio.

It always amazes me when I see young people with raw talent and passion.

What I've noticed about celebrities is, if they are really successful, they're more down-to-earth.

You know, I had the music baskets and the writing basket. And I had the acting. And those eggs just hatched first, and the others were slow to incubate.

I always have plans to return to the stage. I leave myself very open. I think what would be more likely is if I did a limited run of something, whether it be a play or a musical.

I am trying so hard to live in the moment and enjoy it while it's happening, because it feels like a moving freight train that I just got on, and I'm trying not to look back and get dizzy!

I started to write a lot of ballads that were sultry and had a Norah Jones-for-country kind of feel. I wanted to bring elements of old soul music and old country music.

What I loved about country music when I was a kid was the Grand Ole Opry, was Hee Haw, was 360 degrees of entertainment.

Around 14, I was turned on to Shania, Reba, Merle Haggard, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood... and I've followed it ever since.

I feel connected to a higher power when I'm making music or performing. There's a spiritual experience for me.

I listened to country music my whole life. I started writing music when I was a teenager. It all came out country.

I believe in miracles.

I is Jovial. I is Optimistic. I is Antsy. I is Noteworthy. I is Nervy. I is Ambitious.But altogether ME is JOANNA.WHO ARE YOU ALTOGETHER????

Sometimes I make myself laugh, but that's because I appreciate my sense of humor.

Wouldve came back for you, I just needed time to do what I had to do. Caught in the life, I cant let it go. Whether thats right, I wont ever know. But here goes nothin.

Dancing is a sweat job.

We cannot let a minority of people hold a viewpoint that terrorizes the majority of people.

Nature is not benevolent; Nature is just, gives pound for pound, measure for measure, makes no exceptions, never tempers her decrees with mercy, or winks at any infringement of her laws.

Half my life is an act of revision; more than half the act is performed with small changes.

Understanding that celebrity derives from and is a result of some form of accomplishment, it's always gratifying to work with individuals who have made some sort of contribution to society.

Moreano thought that the full back was gonna come up behind and give him one really hard.
