  7. Do you prefer performing live or recording?
    There are certain aspects I enjoy about each. Performing, you feed off of other peoples energy, and you get a certain rush that you don't get anywhere offstage. And with a full show, and working with my dancers.. it's exciting. I also love recording, because I can be in my own space and just belt out everything I am feeling.

    My parents were always very supportive of my talent, and have always inspired me. Musically it was people like Whitney Houston, Mariah, and Jennifer Lopez.

    Being able to perform live. Do what I love to do.

  12. If you could collaborate with another artist, who would it be?
    There are so many artists I would be honored to collaborate with, if I had to choose one, I would say Craig David. He is so amazingly talented.
