“It’s nice to get to know people who are the same age as you that do the same things because it’s like a different level of understanding.”

Being a teenager, it’s so hard to find foundation that’s good for your skin for everyday wear.

My grandparents don’t really listen to pop music, and they only speak Spanish and only listen to Spanish music.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m Latina or something, but I have no problem speaking my mind.

Latina’ has become part of the Becky G family, and I feel very proud to say that.

I’ll eat anything. I love food in general. I love traditional Mexican, carne asada. Just meat, beans, rice, and some good salsa.

Sometimes I’ll post goofy photos of myself on Instagram without make-up or making silly faces. I don’t always look like a little Barbie doll.

This is kind of weird, but I eat lemons with salt as snack. They’re so good!

I’m not going to be doing anything to hurt myself or my fans.

Music was my one way to vent.

I want to be open to the kids who only speak Spanish, the kids who speak only Spanglish, and the kids who don’t even speak Spanish at all.

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

When I get out of work early, or if I have some time before I go into the studio, I go to Disneyland for a few hours with my siblings. We just have fun, go on all the rides together, and eat all of the good food.

I wrote ‘Wish U Were Here’ for Cody Simpson, and he invited me to perform with him on tour and be in his music video. He was shy at first. I think it’s the surfer boy in him that makes him so mellow.

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.

This is rather different from the receptions I used to get fifty years ago. They threw things at me then but they were not roses.

I do not assume that woman is better than man. I do assume that she has a different way of looking at things.

My father loved all different types of music. He wasn’t a snob. He wasn’t a purist.

It is important to draw wisdom from many different places. If we take it from only one place, it becomes rigid and stale.

Maybe my fairy tale has a different ending than I dreamed it would. But that’s OK.

They laugh at me because I’m different; I laugh at them because they’re all the same.

I think I’m a different kind of role model for young girls.

We walk the same path, but got on different shoes, live in the same building, but we got different views.
