“I really have a passion for food. Of course, music, but behind that, it’s food.”

I’m all about telling stories. I like people to picture the music video in their head when they’re just listening to the song.

I look at old performance videos now, and it’s really funny – I thought I was such a gangster!

Giving back is the right thing to do, whether it’s donating clothing or even just a smile to someone who needs it.

My family are my friends.

If I can, I love staying in pajamas all day and watching movies and eating good food.

I think confidence is a true form of beauty.

I’ve definitely accepted the fact that I’m not normal.

Sometimes you do get caught up in the midst of becoming… a product, a brand, and not having a say in any of that.

I’m like, ‘Yeah, I could afford braces, but why should I change myself to be what everybody else wants me to be when I’m OK with who I am and I’m happy with who I am?’

Coffee is my water now.

I figured, ‘Why not go into entertainment?’ I love entertaining people. I always loved being extra loud.

Honestly, are we ever going to get over ‘California Girls’ by Katy Perry? I know it’s old, but that song – I love that song!

I don’t know about you, but I love going on trips – especially with my family.

I love having my hoop earrings. Just regular gold hoops.

When I was nine years old, my family lost our home, and the six of us moved into my grandparents’ converted garage.

I would love to have my own fashion line because I love sketching.

I was not created to be occupied by eating delicious foods like tied up cattle.

You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.

I love to eat – Kit Kats or cookies-and-cream ice cream. I need sugar like five times a day.

The menu is not the meal.

Eating out doesn’t have to be a formula. Eating out is about having fun. I get really frustrated when it’s badly done.

I cook for a living; I’m not a scheduler.

I am well aware that a chef is only as good as his last meal.
