I’m a big perfectionist! I’m trying to channel super-confident women like Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey and Beyonce, because I realized that if you want something, you really have to go for it, just like they do.
I want to be a recording artist for my whole entire life. But Broadway is something I would come back to at any given moment. I love, love, love doing theater.
I’ve dreamed about doing music since I was three or four years old.
The thrill of not knowing what’s going to happen, trained me to be prepared for anything.
I know that my fans will probably learn a lot about me by listening to my music, if they really listen to the lyrics.
I was definitely inspired by Madonna.
I hope that people can relate to my music, it’s very relatable, it’s very fun, it’s very honest.
Of course I love music and I love what I do, but seeing their response to my work is my favourite part of it.
I wasn’t raised in a household where it was considered abnormal to be gay. So for me to meet people who use the word ‘f-ggot’ as an insult, with a derogatory meaning, I can’t take it.
There’s always tomorrow and it always gets better.
Most of my favorite people in my life are gay. It’s something I’m super passionate about, because whenever I would see my friends get bullied, or my brother get hurt for his sexuality, I would become a raging lunatic.
One of the most terrible feelings in the world is knowing that someone else doesn’t like you. Especially when you don’t know what you’ve done to deserve it.
Never take yourself too seriously.
Everyone is beautiful, everyone is perfect, and everyone is lovely.
I’ve done the bad-boy thing. It was fun for a good three months. But the thing about bad boys is, you have to keep in mind, you’re never gonna marry a bad boy.
I like very girly, retro inspired, feminine, floral things. I’m not very edgy.
School is tough sometimes, but it’s all about knowing who your real friends are.
But as far as dream roles – I know this is so expected of me, but I would to play Elphaba in ‘Wicked’ on Broadway. I have a lot of dream roles, but that’s like my main one because of the vocal track. I love belting high things!
People tend to think that because I’m a performer and I don’t go to a regular high school that I haven’t personally been affected by bullies. But it’s actually quite the contrary.
I love nerdy, cute, quirky boys who don’t take themselves too seriously.
