I love fashion, obviously, but I hate trying on clothes.

My mother is black and my father is Filipino. I got the best of both worlds.

You've got to audition! It's tough out there, no matter how well-known you are.

Every girl needs a bestfriend to help her laugh when she thinks she`ll never smile again

It would be awesome to stay popular, but if I was only an underground artist, I would be okay with that.

Im a perfectionist and, when it comes to people I want to work with, I have changed my mind, like, millions of times.

There's a fine line between saying, 'You can't tell me what I can and can't do,' and taking on board people's opinions.

Just remember... it doesn't matter how long you have known each other.. all that matters is that he has kept you smiling from day one

I've worked with acting coaches, I've been going out on auditions and meeting with casting directors. But I'm not known as an actress.

Im from Connecticut. My Mom is an army brat, and my Dad is a navy brat. My childhood was fun. My parents are still together. My childhood was pretty carefree.

I need to shop because generally, I really do style myself. It's easier to wear clothes that are true to who you are. But if it's a headache, I'll ask for help.

I tried a little of everything when I was little. I tried karate, I tried ballet, I tried piano lessons and singing lessons... I was a pretty normal kid, for the most part.

I've been auditioning for a few movies here and there. I don't want anything to get in the way of the music any more than it has. It hasn't really gotten in the way; I've been doing two things at once.

Unfortunately, music is a male-dominated industry. It's not that there aren't plenty of women working in the industry, it's just, the higher up you go... it's like how women who play in the WNBA make so little, compared to men in the NBA.

I never feel like I've been pushed towards a certain thing, but now, at 26, I do feel like I have integrity over my output, you know? There's a fine line between saying, 'You can't tell me what I can and can't do,' and taking on board people's opinions.

I did musical theater, and I did dancing for what it was at the performing arts high school that I went to. I went to a school where I was there on a scholarship. So I think when you're on a scholarship, you always work a tad harder, or you want to work a tad harder than the next person.

It takes people a little longer to get in to you when you have a distinct sound - especially if you're not force-feeding singles to pop radio. I try to be as much of an enigma as I can... because I want to be present and have people know what my message is, but then again, I want that mystery. There's a sensuality in the mystery that I think drives people to listen to my music.
