I always had the intuition, even as a little child, that I was called for a big project.

I'm someone who has always been very stubborn and strong-willed. I never gave up.

The music teacher thought I sang like a goat. It was kind of devastating. A few months after that, I participated in a music contest and won. I took my little trophy to school and rubbed it in his nose. I said to him, "What do you say now?"

I don't think I would want my children to enter into my profession. There's a lot of stress and so much competition. There are easier things you can do with your life.

My main hope for my children would be that whatever profession or calling they choose in life, that they pursue it with passion.

Of course for a Colombian girl it was always impossible to even imagine becoming an international popstar, but my dream became reality.

They just want to continue playing their little game of power. And I feel that us people have the responsibility and also the obligation to demand to our leaders to give us the pacifist solutions. To give us a world in peace.
