Disharmony Is Natural In Any Band.

That Was Exactly Why People Didn't Want To Give Us Any Kind Of Life, Because We Were Threatening Their Status Quo, And They Just Didn't Want To Have Room For Girls Playing Rock 'n' Roll. It Bothered Them. First, People Just Tried To Get Around It By Saying, "oh, Wow, Isn't That Cute? Girls Playing Rock 'n' Roll!," And When We Said, "yeah, Right, This Isn't A Phase; It's What We Want To Do With Our Lives," It Became, "oh! You Must Be A Bunch Of Sluts. You Dykes, You Whores." That's What It Became. Then It Became A Name-calling Contest.

I Think The Media Has Got Into This Enquirer Mentality. Years Ago, Legitimate Press Didn't Really Concern Itself With Sordid Details Of People's Personal Lives. That Wasn't The Focus. But Also A Lot Of Celebrities Were Bullied Into Revealing This Breakup Or Tragedy Or Divorce Or Problem. They Started To Talk About It And The Press Just Started To Talk About People's Private Lives. That Just Seems To Be The Norm.

I'm Really Happy Doing What I'm Doing. I'm Not Looking To Do Anything Else. I Love What I Do. I Love Music. I Love Playing. I Love Touring.

I Went From A Naive, Regular Girl In High School To Trying To Realize My Dream. When My Family Moved From The East Coast To California, I Thought In My Little Brain, "wow, I'm Going To Hollywood. I Could Actually Make This Happen." It Was Easier For Me To Think It's Possible Living In A Place Like Los Angeles Than Trying To Do It In Suburban Maryland.

People Are Very Sincere In Their Praise, And You Can't Take It Lightly.
