It's fun to pretend you're a little kid, you get to use your imagination and live in a world that's not real.

The image you see of me out in public is really different from who I am in real life.

I just love the thrill of performing on stage. I believe that singing is something I was put here to do.

There is nothing else that I would rather do than sing. I have such a great passion for it. Even if I don’t become successful or famous I am still going to continue singing.

I'm beautifully strong and tragically confused.

So many people didn’t want to touch the project with a 10-foot pole. Literally, I had people laughing and saying, ‘You’re making an album? Good luck.’ … But if you sit down and talk music with me for 10 minutes, you know that’s my passion.

I don't really believe in cliques - I think everyone can be friends with everyone.
