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!

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.

The thing that I did not like about being signed to a label was I unable to have control over what I wanted to do.

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

I was born in America, but I consider myself a Filipino.

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