My parents just tell me, ‘If you know what you want, you should stay determined and go for it. You can do anything.’

I've been singing all my life. I've always wanted this. I sang in church, in school plays, and my parents gave me vocal lessons. My parents always said this was destined for me.

You know we're in a business where things are just unpredictable. You don't know what's going to happen...we were lucky Blessed, I think is a better way to put it.

It's hard to say what I want my legacy to be when I'm long gone.

It’s in how you carry yourself. I’ve always been a very mature person, and I’ve always known what I wanted. And I go after it no matter what.

There are certain things I want to keep to me. I don't discuss my private life.

If at first you don't succeed/You can dust it off and try again/Dust yourself off and try again.
