Even in the sad songs, I want people to know that it won't always be like that.

My songs always tend to have a good element to the story. That is who I am - an optimistic person.

I was so fortunate to sing and work with so many amazing performers and artists.

As long as children are still getting kicked out of their homes by parents, getting bullied, commuting suicide, et cetera. it's definitely still worth talking about.

In regards to my artistry, I've learned the importance of being vulnerable.

Ordering pizza and jamming out with the contestants in our hotels and traveling the country together brought me so much joy.

I loved performing every week, but all of the activities and amazing people we met when we were not filming stick out to me the most.
