I'm so grateful to the Lord.

I was a terrible writer at first.

I try everyday to give it my 110%.

Country radio has been so supportive.

Nashville's been like my second home.

We just love spending time with family.

I'm actually pretty boring, to be honest.

Being on the Hot 100 is absolutely amazing.

High school relationships will mess you up.

Everyone's love story is going to be unique.

Oh my God, Luke Bryan is so handsome in person.

I always try to write from a genuine standpoint.

If I had to define my style, I'd say edgy sleek.

I feel like I am a true entertainer and performer.

I think 'American Idol' has prepared me for anything.

I've always tried from a very young age to be positive.

I was always a homebody who wanted to be somebody's wife.

Pinterest is awesome. You can get so many wonderful ideas.

From a young age, I was never into going out and partying.

From a very young age, my main thing was always entertaining.

I can sing as low as Toni Braxton and as high as Mariah Carey.

So, Shane & Shane are my favorite Christian artists out there.

Oh, I'm very grateful for 'American Idol' and I always will be.

The judges have been so supportive and amazing even after 'Idol.'

My dad is my rock. Every single penny he earns goes into my dream.

I always wanted to be somebody that kind of stuck out on the stage.

Just stick to what you feel you sing best at, no matter what it is.

I was raised listening to so many wonderful females with great music.

I was influenced by gospel and Christian music from a very young age.

I'm always looking to find things that are different in country music.

I love Marty Robbins, I love Glen Campbell, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline.

It was actually really hard to get a record deal after 'American Idol.'

Labels and people didn't know if i could write original music or anything.

Not every single person is bad, not all guys are bad, and I found my good one.

All of the genres are just blending now, which I think is another super-cool thing.

I hold the Lord so high in my life, to really being number one before anything else.

I think it's really cool when any of your songs play on the radio for the first time.

There were so many emotions on 'Idol' with nervousness and pressure, but in good ways.

I wanted to put in the time and the work, because eventually it pays off in a good way.

When I was in high school, I used to pray about whoever my future spouse was going to be.

So many people have been so supportive of my music, my music videos, everything all around.

I think acoustic performances and full, live performances are always cool in different ways.

I just think falling in love and being married completely changes your life in so many ways.

Be in Nashville if you want to be in country music, because everybody that can help you is here.

Things that are like overnight success things don't last long, and that's not something I wanted.

In terms of brands, Jovani is one of my favorites, and also Zhivago, and I love Steve Madden shoes.

I would say when I was 9 or 10 I started doing gospel choir, and I was with them for about two years.

My dad was into classic rock and R&B, which I originally started in. And then my mom did the country.

That's how I want to be with stuff: I always want to be in country music, first and foremost, forever.

I love romance and talking about love, and I think it's one of the greatest things you can talk about.
