basically these are thoughts which were too long to make it as tweets LOL

"people ask me all the time about my sexuality. people don't know if i'm straight, bi, or gay but if really pay attention it really isn't that difficult to figure it all out and of course i don't say anything because i like to keep people guessing it makes it more fun. and besides the focus should be more on my performances anyway...right? but naturally people want to know so to answer bluntly...i like boys"

"when i first started performing i was told i would have fans, haters and stalkers. i find that fascinating...stalkers i cannot wait to meet you"!

"people seem more curious about my personal life and i tend to be more private with my personal life; if i have feelings for someone i'm not going to hide it but what happens there after is between the guy and myself.   most people know i am involved or what have you with someone but the details i've been pretty good at keeping those things private thus far..."

"yea, i wrote romeo + juliet for someone i have feelings for. those close to me know like my best mates because they know me better than most, i've known them since we were all kids. i don't like to openly say hey this song was written for xyz because music should be something everyone should be able to relate to. so when someone reads the lyrics they can say hey...i know that feeling too"...

"i don't drink much nor do drugs and never will. it isn't because i think i am better than everyone, but i grew up with a father who had issues with those things, he was a novelist but i just have seen what that all can lead to and don't want to go down that road"....

"my life is/was far from perfect. no one has a perfect life. it really annoys me when people tell me 'oh you're young' really as if i didn't know that already? just because i am young doesn't mean the pain wouldn't affect me as much as if i was in my 40s"....

"people compare to angelina jolie alot  because they say she's weird and i'm weird. okay...but she's also very talented, has a big heart and outspoken...guess that is people's nice way of telling me that"...

"i love rumours because they make my life way more fascinating. once a radio host said i got drunk and told her i slept with a musician backstage[ which i didn't]. i'm thinking really...i only met you for five minutes or less at a show and only saw her the one time and it was hi nice to meet you. but oh well it makes me look badass, but it is hilarious because it seems the first thing people go for is oh she slept with so and so but i find it all funny which is why i never respond to them [rumours]" 

"people are hysterical with the things they come up with. i could walk into a room and say, ' i like green peas and people would swear it is a drug reference".

"going through all of that stuff with my ex boyfriend was hard because it was my first major break up and had to go through all that in front of everyone. thankfully, that part of my life is over and just learned, grew from it and went on a new path. now learned recently he wants to come back but you know...sometimes just have to let things be and move on"

"i have like 3 best mates and i grew up with them so we've known one another since we were all in grade school mostly. it's hard for me to open up to people not going to lie i have trust issues because of all the things i've been through in the past. people mistake that as me being shy but really it is just me becoming more comfortable then i open up."

"i started songwriting again after my brother was killed in a car accident. i never cried so much before in my life; i just needed to get all of those emotions out and it literally felt like someone took away a piece of my heart. he was not only my brother but he was my best friend, my hero and partner in crime. i don't think he truly knew how much i looked up to him in so many ways but he had such a giving heart and exceptionally loyal to those he loved. when i found out he was an organ donor that sounds like something he would do because that is just who he was"

"no, ladies never kiss and tell. i have loads of secrets but will everyone know them no way. some things people just don't need to know"

"i was never into gaining followers on twitter. if people follow me that is great if they want to learn more about me as a performer and as a person even better. but i do know that just because people don't follow you that doesn't mean that people are reading what you write or put out there. that is one reason i try to be responsible for what i post because bottom line: if it's something i feel uncomfortable saying in front of my Godfather [who is a priest] then i wouldn't post it on twitter. thankfully, he trusts my judgment enough to be responsible as a person"

"i honestly want to be in love like the type of feeling where i can be with someone and still crush him. i think that is so attractive to date a person for a while and still crush him. people call me a hopeless romantic but i think situations like sleepless in seattle can exist who are we to place limits on love...it should be free no boundaries to it."

"when we limit ourselves to 'types' like i will only date people this age or hair colour etc it narrows our options to find someone truly amazing. i think our soulmates or the person we're meant to be with ultimately is that one person who breaks all of our preconceived guidelines just to prove ourselves wrong"

"it does annoy me when people say, 'oh you're young' really...as if i didn't know this already? just because i am no where near 40 yet that doesn't mean life hasn't been exceptionally easy. i had to be 40 when i was 15 because of my life circumstances we all grow at different levels in our lives"

"what type of person will i end up with? i honestly think he will be either a performer or a musician. i grew up around musicians my whole life so it's pretty much all i know. 'normal' people are difficult for me to relate to but artists just 'get me' they always have. 'normal' people expect me to go x then y then z but as a creative i always see it as well why not add something else in between that. it drives most people nuts"
