Try not be resentful or jealous of other people's success. Know that your path as a performer is going to be very different than others. Try your best not to compare.

I can't say what my greatest strength between acting and singing is...I'll leave that to the critics. Maybe my best strength is performance itself, being with the audience and feeling what they feel, bouncing off of them.

There are definite vocal trends for every generation as well as accents and I'm not talking about regionalisms.

Every decade has a completely different sound not just musically but vocally.

My dream roles haven't been written yet. My favorite thing to do is to dive into the uncharted territories of a new script that's untainted by someone else's idea of the character.

My advice to aspiring performers is trust your instincts, 9 times out of 10 they are perfect.

I think any good singer needs to be a good actor. You have to be able to tell the story.
