Since you've been gone, I can breath for the first time.

Gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away. I won't forget the place I came from.

The thing I love most about going on vacation is that I get to leave behind any kind of schedule. My entire life is scheduled from morning to night, and when I'm on vacation, there is no schedule.

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly. I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.

I still watch 'Idol,' and it's still the No. 1 show, so obviously I'm not the only one who loves to sit at home and be entertained.

My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more. I'll be different sizes all the time.

I'm proud of everything I achieved with 'Idol,' and away from 'Idol' also. It's just such a different show now to what it was when I was on it. I didn't even know it was a TV show until the third audition.
