“I am constantly overwhelmed-there is years and years worth of stuff that I haven't fully processed yet. May that be my first million subscribers, my first single, my meet and greets, Mismatched, or my first movie, through every achievement, I’ve just felt numb. And that’s why I rely so much on people around me-my parents, my friends, my team, my partner, and of course, the fans!
The real big moments for me, the ones I can never forget, are when fans walk up to me and tell me how much I mean to them. Like this girl who once walked up to me and told me how my song, ‘Shameless’ gave her the confidence to wear a skirt without shaving. That day I realized-sure, I do what I do for money, for fame, for all my dreams, but more importantly, for this impact I get to create!”
