Quotes:
"I'd stand on the side of the road when I was just a little girl singing on trash cans. People would roll down their windows saying, 'isn't she cute'. I had a vivid imagination. I always pretended it was some big stage. At family picnics they'd put me on the table and I'd just start singing."
