When I was nine years old, my family lost our home, and the six of us moved into my grandparents' converted garage.
When I was 11, I decided to start rapping, playing guitar, and writing songs. Everything really blossomed from there.
There are days I'm feeling lazy, and my mom will remind me, 'Beyonce also only has 24 hours during the day.' That always keeps me going.
Sometimes you do get caught up in the midst of becoming... a product, a brand, and not having a say in any of that.
Sometimes I'll post goofy photos of myself on Instagram without make-up or making silly faces. I don't always look like a little Barbie doll.
My parents are so cool, so chill, super hip. They know what's up.
My main focus when I do my makeup is my eyes - I accentuate my eyes, and they look bigger. More 'va va voom,' I guess you can say.
My grandparents don't really listen to pop music, and they only speak Spanish and only listen to Spanish music.
My grandma taught me how to hand-sew, so I'm always making things from hand-me-downs.
Miguel has this Prince, Marvin Gaye, old-school feel that I love.
'Latina' has become part of the Becky G family, and I feel very proud to say that.
It's really easy with makeup to look like you're trying too hard, like a clown. That's not what you want!
In my industry, it's important to have people I look to for different things: guidance, inspiration and motivation.
My only way of getting my uncles' attention or aunts' attention or whoever's attention was by dancing and singing around the house.
