You don't know for sure why things happen, but you know, it did! It was my time to go on the show and I'm excited to see what my future holds.
I'm definitely doing better. I never realized that I would get the support that I've gotten from everybody - from my fans, to people that I've idolized my whole life. So it's overwhelming, it's amazing and I believe that everything happens for a reason so I'm in a really good place right now.
If my life was a song the title would probably be 'Clumsy', 'cause I'm clumsy.
I don't sing in the shower at all, and I don't sing in the shower, either.
When I first found out that I was an Idol finalist, I cried tears of happiness. I was just so happy, and my family was there and the fact that got to see that moment and share that moment with me was just everything to me.
