Zitat des Tages von Jessica Sanchez:
I'm very blessed and appreciative of everything that's happened, and I'm just working hard for more opportunities to come.
I used to have hair so long, my nickname was Pocahontas.
I listen to music when I'm feeling down or just a certain way. I don't know what I'd do without it!
I know when to have fun, but when it comes to my music, I'm really serious about my career.
I don't speak Filipino or Spanish, but I've sung in both.
I have a picture with Obama in my house, and I freak out every time I see it. I'm like, 'What the heck? Did that even happen?' It's like a dream.
On 'Idol,' you have to show off your vocal abilities, so I stuck to the ballads, so I'm glad my first single is 'Tonight' so I can show off my fun, young side, and what I want to do as an artist.
My friends are mostly familiar with music that plays on the mainstream radio.
Before I was on 'Idol,' I just sat at home and played video games all day long. Now I get to travel and work towards my dream. It's the best feeling ever.
I grew up always wanting to be a part of 'Idol,' and I never thought I would make it as far as I did. I was really lucky, and it's given me the opportunities that I have now.
I've been watching 'American Idol' since I was five years old.
It was crazy... working with Ne-Yo. Everything was such a blur, and I was just a fangirl the whole time.
I do sing ballads, but I'm not a balladeer. I'm not the next Celine Dion.
I was born in America, but I consider myself a Filipino.
I am a workaholic. I like to work, work, work.
I grew up singing ballads, but what I really wanted to get into was the mainstream music on the radio because I really love the beats and everything.
I love artists that just do what they do with so much passion and emotion.
I've been training myself and listening to other artists and seeing where their emotion comes from, singing a heartbreak song when they're in a happy relationship.
This is going to seem odd, but I love Eminem because he has so much conviction and emotion in the way he raps. Every word that he raps, you feel it.
Music has always been my passion. It was not a hobby or something I can take out of my life.
I'm playing a powerhouse singer who is big competition, but she's also really down to earth and sweet. But the whole sweet thing goes away when she's in competition mode. I love the show, so I'm very excited to be a part of it. I'm going to kill it on 'Glee!'
I want to do more urban R&B with a little bit of pop, but not much. I want to have that soulful kind of side of me come out.
Every single year, I tell myself I am going to drive. It never happens. I don't know how to drive. I am already 20. This needs to happen.
I remember Steven Tyler coming up to me once. He was like, 'Oh my god, you have a God given talent,' and I freaked out. He's so sweet.
Christmas is my favorite holiday because you spend time with family. I love the decorations, the music, and buying gifts for people. Everything about Christmas is the best.
