I just get focused on whatever is in front of me. When I was filming Crossroads, it had all my focus. Now I'm all focused on finishing my recording so I can get that out. It's just day by day.

I just had to find something else to fulfill me. Always being a singer and writing, it was a blessing. My brother started making music that was the kind of music I always saw myself singing.

I would go visit my mom on Sundays, and my brother was working on stuff. I'd go in there and sing a little melody, then we started working with words and the next thing you know it was just born organically without really trying.

It's really hard for actors to cross over and get any respect as a singer, and if I could just keep it separate and not use my music in movies, it's cool.

There's definitely a whole different vibe on the set when there's like basically royalty working with us. We could have whatever we wanted. I felt like Britney Spears.

We wanted to write a whole song about partying and then taking Yellow Cabs home. That's the weirdest topic we've ever thought of centering a song around.

When we saw our plane on TV as breaking news, it was the most surreal experience. A lot of the women were crying. There was a gentleman who was writing in his journal and crying. Seeing that isn't easy.

After reading Eminem's autobiography, which I did because I'm so interested in him as an artist, I respect him a lot. Even though he seems angry and mad, he's had to fight so many demons in his life.

I play, in real life, Kim, who is actually Marshall Mathers ex-wife as of now. She lies and says she is pregnant because she really wants to keep him and he figures her out.

If you are being weird or silly you can be excused because you are just playing a character.

Lauren Hill, I always have her solo CD nearby. I have Coldplay, Radiohead, just a mix.

After we wrote The Wreckoning, our record label did listen.

Alison Lohman is an amazing actress. I was so proud to work with her.

Even though it seems like there are a lot of parts, there is really tons of downtime in the acting world.

I went through the process of auditioning like every other struggling actress in this town.

I would say our sound is soul pop.

I'm definitely the worker. My brother is the jokester.

I'm more like an animalistic rock chick.

I'm not really into movies on dates because you can't chat it up.

It could be fun to sing with Prince or Michael Jackson. Justin Timberlake has an amazing new sound now.
