“Checking in from New York City! I just played on Good Morning America this morning and it was SO much fun. We flew to New York late last night, as in.. got to our hotel rooms at 2AM… Then I had a 4:30AM call time for hair and make up and sound check at GMA. Awesome. So I was running a little low on sleep, just a little. Ok, a lot. But I woke up and it was all good.
I hadn’t seen my band in about 2 weeks because I’d been doing media interviews and recording vocals and all that stuff.. When I walked into the Good Morning America studio and saw my band, I just ran up to them and gave each of them a huge bear hug. I miss them so much when we’re not on tour. Much like I miss youuu when we’re not playing every night. Like crazy.
I got my hair and make up done and picked out what dress I was going to wear, and started walking down to the studio. I met Barbara Walters in an elevator and she was really nice! When we walked into the studio and up to the stage, there were all these people with signs and t-shirts and my cds, and it was so cool! I always used to watch Good Morning America and see the fans supporting whoever was there, holding up signs.. never actually thought I’d luck out and get to have my own people with signs. Thank you for being there, you guys.
At the start of the show, they unveiled my Seventeen cover! It was so cool to get to ACTUALLY see the ACTUAL cover. It was so crazy to be in that moment.. on Good Morning America (wow) and watching them unveil my Seventeen Magazine cover (wow) and then get to announce that you guys have made my album TRIPLE platinum (WOW). I love you.
The other night, I went to the Young Hollywood Awards in LA. They’re not televised or anything, but it’s a fun night in LA and so many of my favorite actors and actresses were there. I was one of the only musicians there, and the only country artist for sure. So I didn’t know many people. Ok, I didn’t know anyone…So I made some new friends. I met Abigail Breslin from Little Miss Sunshine in the bathroom and she was precious. I spent most of my time there talking to Emma Stone and Teddy Geiger. I love them both so much and Emma’s the coolest chick ever. She played Jules in Superbad and is hilarious. Everyone knew what awards they were getting in advance, and it was cool seeing some of the acceptance speeches. Brittany Snow got the “Best Smile in a Movie” Award made this hilarious and awesomely self-deprecating speech and thanked her dentist. It was really funny! I got the “Superstar of Tomorrow” award, and I had NO idea that it was the last award.. And on top of getting the award, they gave me these gorgeous diamond earrings. I couldn’t believe it. Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue came up and talked about how much he liked my song writing, and then presented the award to me. It was so cool. It was so nice of Hollywood Life magazine and everyone at the Young Hollywood Awards to invite me and give me such a cool award.
Tomorrow morning I get to play on Regis and Kelly! Wish me luck. Then we’re flying home and then back out to Cali for some CONCERTS!!!!”
