“With my platform, anyway, I want to try and do good things and want to help people.”

I started singing before I started talking. And that’s the God’s honest truth. I think it was something that I’ve always loved to do, even if I wasn’t good at it. I just loved ballads.

I was bored one day, so my dad took me to this acting school. I liked it more than having fun – I liked it for an actual job.

I started singing before I started tweeting, actually. It was always a passion… I started singing, and then I got into acting. Singing is something I love to do. I feel very confident doing it.

I have three other siblings, so it’s all very equal – even when I get a little cocky, which I usually do. My brother keeps me in a headlock. He says that I’m not a celebrity in this house. I think I’m really chilled out and grounded.

I love playing Eleven.

Working, for me, is like a gift.

My parents are so amazing, and they’ve travelled around the world with me.

It’s nice to have famous people love you.

I’m quite sarcastic, and I’m funny, but not kind of funny. It’s a weird funny, and some people don’t get me, and some people do.

My family is really proper.

I’m obsessed with working out. I eat like a pig, so it kind of makes up for that.

I could live without my phone. And one thing I’d love to do is experience having the freedom that kids had back in the ’80s.

I feel very lucky. My family and I have worked hard, and I feel very grateful.

My brother’s really well-spoken.

I have two hands: one for me, one for other people.

I am a really great daughter.

No form of theocracy, whether it’s manifested in a violent or non-violent form, is ever good for civilisation, and we have to challenge it in civil society as well as we would challenge Christian-based theocracy, or any other form of bigotry.

In the state of love, no matter what you do, it’s going to be good.

A good marriage is where both people feel like they’re getting the better end of the deal.

I believe in the principle that I can make a difference in this world. It may be ever so small, but it will count for the greater good.

In today’s society, looking good and feeling good often trumps doing good and being good. And some people don’t know the difference anymore.

All is well. Everything is working out for my highest good. Out of this situation only good will come. I am safe!

I love doing YouTube. That’s where my heart is, and so it makes me sad when I can’t put a good, fun, energetic video out, because that’s what I love to do – and that’s my passion. And that’s who I am.

If you aren’t really careful, ‘The Good Enough’ can become the enemy of ‘The Best.’
