I think it's really important to treat yourself with respect because sometimes people can get down on themselves
I think the best way people can connect to you is by being real
You have to think about how you're going to present yourself and want people, wanna show your stuff and who you are
Ive never had a celebrity crush! I dont believe in those, really. I feel like you have to get to know the person before you start to feel anything like that. People always think they know celebrities, but how can you when youve never met them?
Every time I would think about my purpose, the answers seemed to come in sounds. In melodies. In feelings.
So as I think back on it now, I think it is safe to say that music is something you both hear and feel. I also realize that feelings change frequently and that for the most part, they are not a constant. They change from high to low, happy to sad, content to ecstatic and back down again. Not all music has the same purpose, but most music makes you feel "something.
do u ever think, when ur all alone, all tht we could be, where this can go, am i crazy, or falling in love?
Things never happen exactly how you think they will.
I like to believe that you don't need to reach a certain goal to be happy. I prefer to think that happiness is always there, and that when things don't go the way we might like them to, it's a sign from above that something even better is right around the corner.
Being on a mission-not thinking about myself and focusing on serving other people-is what brought me closer to God than anything else.
My mom is just someone who's easy to talk to and hang with. My sister, it's always cool to be able to help her out with things. My brother is fun when we're just joking and messing around. And my dad is someone who's helpful with my music and easy to talk to about that stuff because he understands me in that sense.
I want to make sure that I make music that lasts. I've been experimenting. I've been writing.
I like cartoons. I like 'Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.' It's funny! It has things that kids wouldn't get. It's like, if you're mature, you get it. I like that and 'The Fairly OddParents.'
I want to figure out what kind of artist I want to be, because with the 'American Idol' process, it just works really fast. The night of the finale, they said, 'OK, here are all the label people that you're gonna work with, this is the album you're gonna make and blah, blah, blah.' So it was a pretty fast process, but it's been cool.
