I had no idea I could make it this far. And the fact that they told me I made it this far and that America is going to vote for me, I freaked out.

I had no idea what I was going to do when they threw me out of school.

But I had no idea that they were going to pull the plug so quickly.

Nobody in my family was musical. I had no idea you could be a songwriter and make a living at it. It was all discovery. It was all just thrown at me.

If you're a good singer, you're going to make anything sound good.

I had no idea that being your authentic self could make me as rich as I've become. If I had, I'd have done it a lot earlier.
