I live in Brooklyn, New York. It is a melting pot of cultures and people. I walk down the street, and there is art on the buildings and people congregating who have been neighbors for years and events and music and freedom.

I started to realize that everyone goes through those doubts, and I need to try and be the best version of me I can - not only for myself but everyone around me.

Meeting Justin Bieber was interesting. We were backstage at The Voice, and he was there premiering his "Boyfriend" music video. I was in six-inch heels, so I was towering over him like a giant.

If we can just try every day to be the best versions of ourselves, we are offering to the world the best addition to society.

I would like to release an album that I truly believe in, thus it is hard to put a time limit on it. I want to really go deeper and discover myself again through music.

Women come in all shapes and sizes, and we are what we want to be, not the label that is placed on us.

There is an energy in New York that is like nowhere else I've been, and I feel free there, and that is inspiring.
