I learn every day what it means to love myself, and I'm constantly figuring out what makes me feel empowered.

I always knew I wanted to be in a band.

The choices that we make aren't always perfect but it's ok... It's part of the journey.

Paramore will be the neighbor that comes over for tea and never leaves.

No, I'm not a vegetarian. I do eat that way. I actually eat vegan quite a lot. I feel better when I eat that way, and I think there's been a lot of proof that's come up over the last however many...

For me, embracing my own power is about embracing my right to be an individual.

My mom was a huge Adam and the Ants fan. My granddad listened to a lot of Motown and Elvis and Johnny Cash. So I was kind of well-rounded.

I just feel like bands always need to work harder than the hardest working band. You need to constantly be one-upping yourself and surprising yourself at how hard that you'll work and devote yourself...

I'm not sorry for who I am.

What motivates me is seeing people in the crowd and wondering what they're going home to and what they're dealing with, and knowing that for the time being we're their escape.
