My mom was definitely very strict with me.
If there's ever been a dark moment in my life... well, I wanted to check out. Music was a big escape.
My mom was an amazing singer and music was a big part of my life, so I grew up listening to Nat King Cole, Johnny Mathis, Henry Mancini; I used to watch 'The Andy Williams Show' on TV. I was very musical, so I was watching stuff that most kids my age wouldn't be interested in.

We want it to be clarified to us why this family, who has been guarding this boy, is being compelled to betray his trust and hand him over on a silver platter.
I'm a writer and this is what I love to do. There's no reason that just because you're a celebrity you can't write,
