My advice would be to follow your dream. Most of my life, I was in second place before I came in first place. I hope that inspired people to never give up.
I write almost everything, actually. Songs, poems, stories. And stories out of every genre, too.
I say three prayers every night to make sure that God knows I thank him so much.
That's really all I want, to be able to change the world with my voice.
I would like to sing for the Pope. And the Queen, and at Simon Cowell's wedding.
It's good to kind of get away from the star treatment.
When I go to school, I'm always happy because it's a normal kid thing.
Singing is my main goal, and I think philosophy will help me write songs.
Acting and singing are actually very similar because they're both telling a story.
I'm not really a fan of people who think they're better than others. There's no reason to act that way. I couldn't even stand to yell at someone if they bumped right into me.
Anything that I can do with my voice thats good, Ill try to do.
It's always exciting to see different cities I love, and go on tour buses. It's so much fun to travel. My favorite part is being able to perform live in front of all these amazing people; being able to connect with them and seeing their reaction makes me feel very special.
I know that I'm definitely not a big big snob, and I know that at the times that I am a diva I know I'm being a diva. It's kind of annoying to know that you are. Because it's a person I do not want to be. So I'm trying my best not to become a jerk.
My family still treats me like they did when I was 7 or 6.
I don't think I'll ever want to do pop music. I think I'll only ever want to do classical crossover because it's something that I love, and pop just doesn't work for me.
My parents are OK with me wearing a small heel, up to 1.5 inches high. Heels give me height when I wear such long dresses. For me, they complete the outfit.
I'm not going to choose between classical, Broadway or pop. I would love to stay where I am now - a mix of everything.
I warm up with my mom and make sure I understand what the songs are about, and make sure I'm using the right technique. To be honest with you, I really don't practice a lot... Usually I say a prayer and ask the Lord to sing with me and help me and stand on the stage with me.
Whenever I'm waiting behind the stage, it's kind of like my normal Jackie mode is me talking a lot, playing around, but superstar Jackie mode is me concentrating on making sure that this performance was going to be a great performance.
I have always despised people who thought they were better than others, and I made a promise to myself that I'd never turn into that kind of person. My family also helps to keep me grounded. Whenever I get a 'diva moment,' as they like to call it, they let me know it and say, 'Stop acting like a diva!' They're pretty good at it, too.
I'd love to do a Broadway show, but I can't because of the style I sing.
I normally wear Stuart Weitzman or Kors Michael Kors.
I like 'Sponge Bob' and 'The Last Airbender.' I like shows where people get creative to do the impossible.
Um, well, I made a new CD called 'Dream With Me' and it's out now, and I'm really excited about it.
The only thing that really inspired me for singing was the movie and musical 'Phantom of the Opera.' I went to see it in the theaters, and I loved it so much. And when I got home, I started singing the songs around the house, and my mom thought I was really good, so she asked me if I wanted to do a talent competition. And I said, 'Yes, definitely.'
