I want to keep making movies, hopefully with some nominations, if I’m lucky! Movies that make people feel something, where they walk away and say, “Gosh, she’s different.”
I don’t want to be that girl who has that same style all the time where the music always sounds exactly the same, and you always know it’s her.
My makeup artist, Tonya Brewer, taught me the importance of moisturizing daily. Hydration is a must if you want pretty, dewy skin – which I love.
I think that everyone has the power to make a change in the world.
I think that everybody needs somebody to really look up to and know that even though you’re going through a tough time, you’ll get over it.
Start going to bed earlier! It is a tough adjustment when you have had a summer of staying up late and waking up late.
I feel like girls always deserve flowers; it’s just a nice thing to do. If you want to make your girlfriend smile, send her flowers!
I love pointy nails! A cute way to add a pop of color to your nails is to make a V-shape at the ends of them in a pastel color.
I’d like to help other kids with dyslexia, because I’m dyslexic. It was very hard, and I know that what I went through, other kids are going through.
I have to work extra hard because I am dyslexic. People said that I couldn’t be an actress, but I’m proving them wrong. Acting has helped me overcome the challenge.
I never saw myself as a singer; I never really thought I had the voice for it.
If someone is trying to bring you down, it only means you’re above them.
I don’t think people realize how much work it takes to make an album.
My father is Cuban. Spanish was my first language, but I don’t speak it that much anymore because I had dyslexia, and in school they work with you only in English. But I’m proud to be Latina, and most people don’t know I am.
My secret is one the world needs to know – nearly a billion people a year die from unsafe drinking water.
I tend to have a lot of guy friends.
Acting isn’t a side thing – you have to live and breathe it.
Music is a big part of my life. I listen to different genres, and I choose the music that will inspire the next part of my story.
My family was absolutely supportive. I did have a fear of cold reads because of my dyslexia, but my family’s support and reading classes really helped me overcome my fear!
I don’t have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm.
