Awareness is empowering.
Be fearless in trying new things, whether they are physical, mental, or emotional, since being afraid can challenge you to go to the next level.
I would go to school and be American and then come home and be Greek.
I do think you have to scare yourself. That's where your creativity or your growth comes from. Scaring yourself, challenging yourself, taking those risks, and not caring about what anyone thinks.

My mother is Greek and my father is Bulgarian. I am a first-generation American and native Los Angeleno. I was born and raised in Hollywood.
You've got to want to be married to the person you're married to.

Performing live actually thrills me. Just get me a stage, get me a mic, and I'm going to be happy.
I always wanted to sing. I didn't know how to do it. I didn't know how to make the singing thing happen.
