You have sang so many covers which one did you thought was like "uhhhh this is the song".

One of my favourite covers I've ever done is ed sheerans "Lego house".. I did a live piano version of it, so the raw emotion of the song and lyric really came through. That song has a really special place in my heart.

Every one has a reason behind choosing a career, what was the reason behind your choice?

The stage is the only place where I feel home. Music is the only thing that makes sense to me. I can't imagine myself doing anything else.

If I asked you to rank the parts of your life that you feel most satisfied with--love, family, music --what would be at the top?

I would say family first. I've been lucky enough to have had a wonderful childhood and I am very close with both of my parents and my younger brother. Sometimes it's hard because they live on the other side of the country but they've always been very supportive of my dream. Second would be music, I'm proud of the accomplishments I've made up to this point and I know that's it's all a product of my own persistence and hard work. Last would be love.. Until recently, it hasn't been a focal point in my life but I think I'm finally ready to share my wonderful life with someone else.

How do you define your personality now that you're a celebrity.

I wouldn't exactly call myself a celebrity and I have a hard time calling my followers "fans"... I see them more as friends to be honest. I'm happy that people are listening to my original music and relate to it. I'm grateful for every comment, tweet, post and download. The fact that I can make someone's mood change is pretty incredible.

Tell us something about your interests.

Other than music I love to travel. I've had the pleasure of living in Australia and Dubai, and have been lucky enough to travel quite extensively over the years. I'm a bit of a sports fanatic, especially football. I love going to games.. The rush of a sporting event always gets me!

What is your taste in Fashion, What's your style.

My style changes all the time, day to day depending on my mood. My black studded Steve Madden boots are always a staple and I am loving the sneeker wedges. I love tights and dresses. I try and do an edgy feminine look.
