I want to still be singing at 70 years old. I want to be open to the dreams I haven't even dreamed up.

I like to play dress up, I'm in love with fashion.

I caught a lot of flak for being a young mama.

Cause when I had my child, people tried to make me feel like life was over for me, and I started to believe that.

I feel like a good mom. I'm a strong woman now... Don't look down on me. Pray for me because I'm trying.

I knew exactly what I was doing. You can't accidentally take a whole bottle of pills.

I've been wanting to sing for a long time. I've been singing all my life, and I've tried different record companies, but it seemed like - it was such a struggle and so hard to get out there. So, I said, 'I'm gonna go on American Idol and see how far it takes me.'
