Thank God even crazy dreams come true

I can't believe this is happening to me. The weirdest thing is it was just a dream, and now it's actually real. It's hard to believe sometimes.

My support group - my mom, my dad, my sisters, my brothers-in-law, my immediate nieces and nephews, my immediate family like Aunt Donna - I know I can trust them. Most of the other people...they never called me before, they never said "I love you" before, they never wanted to take a picture with me at family reunions. It's like, don't do it now...You win the lottery and all of a sudden everybody's your best friend.

I definitely think we should all have the right to love, and love publicly, the people we want to love.

American Idol transcends age, gender, ethnicity, everything.

I'm pretty boring. I consider myself not a celebrity. I'm a normal person that sings on stage.

There's not ever much of anything going on in my head.
