I love to make music, and if I could do this forever I'd be happy. But if I can help any other kid out there or anyone - and show them that "life throws weird stuff at you all the time. It's OK to get down, but it's bringing yourself back from that that's really going to make you who you are," if I can help anyone out there feel a little bit less alone or make them feel like their voice is being heard through me or my music, that is the goal.

Luckily, I have some amazing friends.

I don't think I'm the worst singer, but I don't think I'm the best singer.

I was one of those little girls who practiced signing autographs since I was 5 years old.

I decided not to give the haters the satisfaction that they got me so bad I gave up.

Which Seat Should I Take?

To me I'm just a regular person going to the mall with friends, and now I'm in Forever 21 and I see this random group of girls staring at me and taking pictures. But now I usually have my dad, who is a really tall and intimidating person with me, so he's kind of my bodyguard.
