Be stupid, be dumb, be funny, if that's who you are. Don't try to be someone that society wants you to be, that's stupid. So be yourself.

But I also think it's about a person's personality that draws people in, too, not just their singing.

People aren't born strong. people grow stronger little by little, encountering difficult situations learning not to run from them.

I'm not perfect, but I believe my faith in Jesus Christ will really take me far in the world!

But Stacie Orrico was my childhood hero. I was about 12 when I found her music. She is a contemporary Christian artist, and I can honestly tell you that I don't think I'd have a soulful voice if I didn't listen to Stacie. I wanted to sound just like her growing up, and to this day I STILL think I sound a little bit like her. But she is AMAZING!

Confidence is not 'they will like me'. Confidence instead is 'I'll be fine if they don't'.

I've seen too many celebrities fall from their morals, and I wanna come up under that and be THAT girl that doesn't need a scandal to make herself look better.
