I love Hershey's chocolate. I feel the same about chocolate as I do about wine. Connoisseurs like dark chocolate and they like nasty wine that doesn't taste good to me. I don't get it!

I don't care what the haters and naysayers say. If they make jokes about me, I'll laugh because they'll probably be funny.

My mom and my dad never pushed me into performing. They never prohibited me from trying anything, or being anything. They never restricted me in any way. For which I'll be forever grateful.

No matter the situation, I stay focused and motivated on my goals because that's the way I was raised.
