“It felt very natural to me to write a Christmas song, but at the same ...” — Christina Perri Quote

It felt very natural to me to write a Christmas song, but at the same time I had to really put all sorts of pressure aside and just let the creativity flow and see what came out.

Music has been my everything since day one. It's been my shoulder to cry on, my rock and my best friend.

Everything around me inspires and influences me. Mainly love - falling in it, losing it, loving it and hating it.

You need to love yourself and be yourself one hundred percent before you can actually love someone else.

I'm a total protein shake junkie nerd. I get creative every morning - you never know what you're gonna get in my shake... fruit? Peanut butter? Ice-cream?

I think 'Elf' is funny, with Will Ferrell. That's a great Christmas movie.

Christopher Walken and Nathalie Baye played my parents so well that I really thought I was in my living room at Christmas. My mother couldn't have been played more correctly.

For Christmas every year, my mother used to give me those cheap little diaries that would tell your horoscope and provide a little blank slot for each day.

Ill cook at my house on Christmas Day and my mom will come by. I dont know yet what Ill be making. Ill probably do a roast of some kind, maybe a tenderloin. My family loves that. My daughter is a vegetarian so I will do something special for her.
