“I’ve always been really tall and lanky.”

You have to work the crowd.

I’m not a rapper.

Definitely, it’s hard being a young artist and being taken seriously.

I felt like there were so many talented people who should be getting what I have.

Just the fact that a thousand people in front of me were ready to hear me sing was one of the best feelings I can think of.

I really love listening to Hozier. He’s great.

I have songs about growing up, about ex-relationships – ex-relationship, I should say.

It’s amazing having so many people care so much about what I’m doing.

I carry around this little lion named Leo, which I’ve had for as long as I can remember.

I loved entertainment and acting, performing. I just liked the stage and having the spotlight and stuff.

I have a thing where if I’m not in control, I feel the whole world is about to collapse.

I don’t want to just be a teenage star. I want to be known by parents, and I want them to go, ‘Oh I love that song; he’s really good for his age. My daughter loves him, but I love him, too.’

People say to me, ‘What are you going to be doing in five years?’ The thing is, I don’t care! It’s what I’m doing today that matters.

People made fun of my skinny legs.

I feel pressure because I feel like I have a lot of parents in my life; I have a lot of people who are scared that I’m going to do something wrong.

A lot of people who are ‘social media’ stars aren’t considered to be ‘real’ stars, and people underestimate the amount of work it takes to edit and upload a video every single day and document your life like that.

I’ve never understood the notion that actors and actresses should look great on-screen just because they’re on-screen. That doesn’t make sense to me.

I don’t like my voice. I don’t like the way I look. I don’t like the way I move. I don’t like the way I act. I mean, period. So, you know, I don’t like myself.

It appears that ordinary men take wives because possession is not possible without marriage, and that ordinary women accept husbands because marriage is not possible without possession.

Most things disappoint till you look deeper.

Liberty, like health, appears most precious when lost.

The mirror of your health is your skin. If you drink, it shows in your face; if you eat the wrong foods, you have pimples. If you take care of your food and you lead a healthy life, your skin will look wonderful.

I always make sure my lashes look cute.

I’d much rather eat pasta and drink wine than be a size 0.
