Music is colorless. It's for everybody, it's for the world, it's for everybody to enjoy.

Because I think every child star suffers through this period because you're not the cute and charming child that you were. You start to grow, and they want to keep you little forever.

I want people to appreciate talent and ability.

A lot of people have been overexposed. Where people are fed up. I pray that that never happens with me.

And that's what innocence is. It's simple and trusting like a child, not judgmental and committed to one narrow point of view. If you are locked into a pattern of thinking and responding, your creativity gets blocked. You miss the freshness and magic of the moment. Learn to be innocent again, and that freshness never fades.

When you know something is wrong for you, you have to make difficult decisions and trust your instincts.
