My lips are big, but my talent is bigger.

I’m very soulful. I grew up singing in church. When I sing a song, I like to feel what I’m singing.

My lips are big, but my talent is bigger.

I’ve been wanting to sing for a long time. I’ve been singing all my life, and I’ve tried different record companies, but it seemed like – it was such a struggle and so hard to get out there. So, I said, ‘I’m gonna go on American Idol and see how far it takes me.’

I like to play dress up, I’m in love with fashion.

I want to do all types of music, music for all people. I want my music to be encouraging, to help people.

I always say you’ve only got one life to live, and you’re not promised a tomorrow. So, you might as well just have a good time with it.

When I’m out on the stage, it gives me this rush and anything that’s on my mind and everything I’m going through is forgotten about.
