I used to play the piano when I was younger, and I loved Alicia Keys. I wanted to be Alicia Keys; she was such an idol to me.

Slap some keys on her and we'll have a piano.

When I was younger, there was a huge gap between what I wanted to do and what I could do as an idol.

I loved ninjas when I was younger.

I used to play the piano in the band, and so there's some horrendous scenes of me playing the keyboards.

Ever since I was younger I wanted to be on stage, singing my songs in a glittering costume. And that happened and is still happening. I have to remember that this is what I wished for and be grateful because there are 500 other girls right behind me that are ready to snatch it up.
