Dairy products are not good for a singer.

But I also live to perform and I've been performing my whole life, whether it's been in sports or you know in band or with my singing.

I've been blessed because there are a lot of great singers out there that didn't make it past their first album.

I feel as if I've been able to do so many things I never expected to do.

So I've never in my whole life really been teased about my weight.

People just take your kindness for weakness sometimes, and that's just the bottom line.

My mother always taught me, even my dad, just never let other people's opinions of you shape your opinion of yourself. And I never have and I never will.
