I've battled psoriasis; I've had an autoimmune disease since I was two. So I'm very vigilant about taking care of myself and eating right and what I put in my body. It's something that I had to be aware of since a young age. So health is a big deal.

Hopefully people will grow with me, because I'm definitely not going to be stuck in one place all my life.

I know you can't go back, so I try to do all the things other teenagers do.

Even one kid going hungry in America is one too many. How can we stand by when the reality is that there are more than 12 million underfed children in the U.S.? We can make a difference.

I needed to become something besides the star everybody had built me up to be.

I don't care if I'm in too deep.

I think I'm realizing I've always been able to move people, just getting people to talk.
