Not being happy really is my fear.

I’m not a huge musical fan. It’s like when people just jump out singing; it’s not real.

Just as many people that love me, hate me, too. I get really mean, mean, mean, mean comments on Twitter, and it just comes with the territory.

I really look up to Will Smith. He’s internationally known, and people know him from everything. I don’t know any kid who hasn’t seen and liked Fresh Prince, or you’ll like one of his movies...

Don’t depend on a guy for your happiness. You have to live your own life and do your own thing. That’s when good things come around – when you do your own thing and you’re...

As you age, you start to realize that your emotions are in your hands and not someone else’s. Once you put them in someone else’s hands, that’s when you give them the power, and you...

We need to stop separating ourselves by how dark or how light we are.

Whether it be in acting, music, or even in dancing, I only want to do things that I truly connect to, and with my music, it’s everything that I am.

My father’s a deacon, my mother’s a choir director, so I grew up in the church and singing in the choir, begging my mom if I could have a solo.

I have a few celebrity friends, but I’m really not into the whole Hollywood scene. I like to separate myself from my work. It stresses me out if I do too much of the same.

Whatever my situation is, I want to show that I’m not perfect, and perfect isn’t real. The youth need to know that, especially.

I can’t work all day and then go home and hang out with the same people. I don’t want everything to revolve around the entertainment business. Yes, that’s my career, but it’s not my life.

Comedians like to see people smile. With acting, I love giving people a feeling, an emotion. I like to give people a feeling. When they come away from my scene, I want them to think.

I don’t curl my hair. In fact, I don’t know how to.
