Do not let anything get in your way of chasing your dreams.

I want to let my fans know that I will not hold myself back anymore. Everybody knows me as "15-Year-Old Little Jessica who was on 'American Idol' and who is this sweet, quiet girl." I am very soft-spoken, but I have gone through numerous experiences, and I want to speak out and tell people what has been going on in my life.

I want to release music that is true to myself.

Being hurt by someone you really cared about, it makes me want to make them regret ever hurting my heart. Best way of doing that? Success. Get ready for it.

I used to have hair so long, my nickname was Pocahontas.

Music has always been a huge part of my life.

I always make a wish at 11:11, even if its something cheesy.
