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 really want to show my supporters - -the direction I wish to go into, and my fans know that is what I want to do! They even have recommended songs for me to sing, I love my fans...they are awesome!

Even though it was a stressful time in my life, I have a lot of good memories from my Idol experience.

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

I love artists that just do what they do with so much passion and emotion.

I want to release music that is true to myself.

Music has always been a huge part of my life.
