Singing is still my number one. This whole acting thing, it's just for experience, and I just want the people to know that I have other stuff that I really love that I really wanna share with them.

It's a crazy busy schedule, but I still have two hours a day for school because it's a priority.

I really wanted to be a dancer, actually. Michael Jackson inspired me a lot.

There are people we look up to, like Lady Gaga and what she's built. She's not afraid to own who she is.

I think a lot of songwriters would agree that it's often easier to find inspiration in misery.

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.
