If my life were a song it'd be called 'Here I Am' because here I am - I mean, I'm Thia and I'm here to me me, I'm here to express myself musically which I find is the best way to express myself.

I want to put my vibe and my feel of music into an album and have people from different places around the world feel that and hear that.

I prefer to sing in the shower 'cause the acoustics are really, really good, I mean, when you're singing against the tile walls then you really hear yourself, hear your voice, you know, throwing itself back at you.

I try to reach out to my idols.

When I found out I was in the top 13 I was freaking out and crying it was such a joyous moment for me.

I would love to meet Kelly Clarkson and if I get the chance to I would tell her thank you so much for the inspiration.
