“I don’t really like to say, ‘This is where I’ll be in five years,’ because I truly have no idea.”

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 can’t believe how fast things have happened, and I’m just so honored that people are able to look to me as a leader.

Someone was like, ‘If you wanna be a celebrity, know that every girl you talk to is going to be your girlfriend.’ And I was like, ‘Fine. I accept that for getting to do what I love for the rest of my life.’

I really like brunettes.

I’d rather sleep on the bus than in the hotel because I sleep way better on tour buses.

I started watching YouTube videos and singing, and it became something that I was obsessed with.

I work so hard to make that sure I’m successful. If you’re positive and really excited and enthusiastic about what you’re doing, it’s going to happen, and it’s going to happen big time.
