What motivated you to audition for the show?
I've always wanted to do reality TV, yet this was even greater, like a door opening that could lead to good things for my career.
Do you have any prior experience performing? If so, how does it compare to performing on the show?
Yes, I've performed a few times on different shows. My true skill comes from the church where I learned to sing and perform at the age of three. That training helped but there is really no comparison.
What was going through your mind during the live performance prior to the winner being selected?
I was thinking that it was a great possibility that one of the others would win so it was my turn to prove to them, show them that I was a true talent, so I went hard.
What was your expectation of the show? Did the show meet your expectation or disappoint you in any way?
I figured it would be a great opportunity to learn more about the industry and myself and I'm thankful for this show doing exactly that.
What was your most memorable experience on the road?
My most memorable experience on the road was not shown, I went to the church in New Orleans and sang with the wonderful Karen Clark, one of my idols.
How do you feel about the way your character was depicted on the show?
They tried to make me look extremely soft on TV. because of my emotions I was slightly irritated by this yet that's TV.
Is there anything that you wanted fans of the show to know about you that may not have been reflected during the show?
That I care and love hard and am very strong minded and I am not such a B**ch.
How have grown through this experience?
I am a stronger performer; I've learned there is no limit to what one can do if they believe.
You and Jessica developed a strong friendship during the show. Was it difficult performing against her knowing that one of you would have to be eliminated?
Yes and no because we knew what it was we agreed from the jump, that we'd go to the end together and that's what happened.
What are your future plans? Do you still plan on pursuing a career in the music industry?
I just wanna sing. I am doing shows and things of that nature. I will continue to record and either on a label or no label, I'll be heard.
