I've never had that much trouble with the paparazzi, but I don't run the same circles that a lot of these people that do get hounded by the paparazzi.

I think [music and acting], they are connected, all that stuff. It's your emotional self, is pretty much how you do it, I think, from whatever place you do it, whether you're acting or you're singing.
Dolly Parton

If you talk bad about country music, it's like saying bad things about my momma. Them's fightin' words.

I've tried different things through the years to get some play on mainstream. I'll try to tailor-make it.
