I look back at photographs and I remember at the time I thought I was not very attractive.

The world wants us to be who we truly are, not who we think others want us to be.

I sang for my family. And I think probably the first time I sang and got paid for it, I was about 6 or 7.

Even within the last three or four years, I have a greater ability to communicate, I think. I have more courage to show the stuff... And it does take courage.

I have absolutely no desire and no thought of quitting ever.
