I think, for me, winning opens doors to all types of shapes and sizes and genres to come on the show and kill it. I'm probably the antithesis of what American Idols have been.

We all come in different shapes and sizes, and that's fine by me.

Nashville, I think, for me, personally, would be where I want to live and work. L.A. is a whole other world and has a whole other vibe to it, so I would like to come out here for work for a couple of months, but L.A. is just not really my scene, per se.

I think you just have to keep knocking down doors, and you have to keep being aggressive, and even if somebody says no, then you have to knock on the next door,

We see compulsive gamblers of all sizes and shapes.

I'd open doors for anyone who opens doors for me.
