“I don’t really look into the past too much.”

Mercy,’ I love conceptually because I feel like you can either think about it as if it were a girl – which it sounds like it could be about a girl – but I like to picture it as ‘pleading for mercy for my career’ type of thing.

My advice to anyone with a dream is to never stop pursuing it.

I like dancers. I have a thing for girls who dance.

I don’t like age barriers. I don’t like when people treat you differently when they find out how old you are.

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

I’d love to work with Bruno Mars and Ryan Tedder.

I’m kind of still learning my voice and learning my style.

I used to write stories. Handwriting stories in school were a big deal for me. That’s kind of what I did.

You look back at people like Elvis and The Beatles and still get their music because it’s timeless. That’s what I want.

I’ve never had a scandal, but I don’t know if that’s so much because I’m perfect, or because people aren’t caring enough yet. Give it some time. I’ll probably be very upset, but it’s a part of the gig.

As soon as I get time, I really wanna dig down and do some acting.

I’m tortured because I care. I’m always upset about not doing things as good as I think I could have because I care.

My first Vine I really just posted out of spontaneity.

I’m not the best singer in the world; I’m just good at picking up what I want to sound like.

Absolutely, I never stop working on new music.

I have a song called ‘I Don’t Even Know Your Name’ which I think is going to be well liked across the board.

I’m a massive fan of Drake, and we walked right past him. He’s too cool to be clapping One Direction though.

The past was great no doubt, but I sincerely believe that the future will be more glorious still.

Time present and time past are both perhaps present in time future And time future contained in time past.

Yet, every now and then, there would pass a young girl, slender, fair and desirable, arousing in young men a not ignoble desire to possess her, and stirring in old men regrets for ecstasy not seized and now forever past.

Learn from the past and share your experiences with others.

I never get hung up on the past – the memories are too negative.

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past, bringing back these memories I wish I didn’t have.

Life is the past, the present and the perhaps.
