I was born in New Jersey and lived there until I was about 10, so Jersey is in my roots.

I'm a girl from Jersey.

I was born in New Jersey, but it doesn't sound like I'm from a certain region.

I was raised in New Jersey - Long Branch.

I could be anywhere in the country, and people will ask, 'Are you from Jersey?' I'm proud of that. We're a weird breed.

New Jersey shaped who and what I am. Growing up in Jersey gave you all the advantages of New York, but you were in its shadow. Anyone who's come from here will tell you that same story.

Really, I'm just a simple girl from Jersey.

When I was growing up, it was so embarrassing to be from Jersey.

I was born in Jersey City and raised in Bayonne, New Jersey. It's a town that's next to Jersey City, and I'm still there!

I live in New Jersey now, which always gets a bad rap here and there, but I must say, I enjoy living here too.
