“Growing up, my family struggled to make ends meet, so I know how important organizations like The Salvation Army are for families to lean on in times of need.”

Working with Bruno Mars would be really awesome. I’m such a fan of his, and I love that he’s a real artist.

I feel like a little beast when I’m onstage, and I feel like my fans have that little beast inside of them, too: this hunger for life.

There are days I’m feeling lazy, and my mom will remind me, ‘Beyonce also only has 24 hours during the day.’ That always keeps me going.

My little siblings keep me grounded. I’m a kid at heart.

I wrote ‘Oath’ for Cher Lloyd because there were really no best-friend anthems out there. Not only did she love it, she wanted me to rap on it, too!

For my everyday look, I don’t like going anywhere without eye makeup.

I look up to Rihanna and Rita Ora. They obviously wear a lot of gold jewelry and have this urban feel to them.

My main focus when I do my makeup is my eyes – I accentuate my eyes, and they look bigger. More ‘va va voom,’ I guess you can say.

I got discovered off of YouTube.

My fans can see me grow up.

I never lie to my fans.

When I’m on family road trips, there is always Ranchera playing.

When I was 11, I decided to start rapping, playing guitar, and writing songs. Everything really blossomed from there.

My only way of getting my uncles’ attention or aunts’ attention or whoever’s attention was by dancing and singing around the house.

Can’t Stop Dancing’ is this other side of me that I was ready to introduce to my fans, which is like, after you hang out with me, you start to see that I can be chilled and relaxed, and I’m a little bit more mature for my age.

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.

a little sounder for those who come after. Nobody begins or ends anything. Each person is a link, weak or strong, in an endless chain.

Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art.

I’m blessed to have such a tight-knit family that we can talk about anything. Whether we talk frequently or not, since we’re on separate ends of the country, there are a lot of moving parts, and we always stay tight and find that center ground that keeps us together.

The ATF’s ongoing, unconstitutional attacks on the Second Amendment must end.

No society that feeds its children on tales of successful violence can expect them not to believe that violence in the end is rewarded.

I have a message for Democrats, including Joe Biden: the time of demeaning and destroying conservative Americans simply for their beliefs has come to an end.

Through a grandmother’s voice and hands the end of life is known at the beginning.

By the end of World War II, we were the most powerful and least damaged of the great nations. We also had most of the money. America’s hegemony lasted exactly five years.
