Quotes by Jackie Evancho
I’m not going to choose between classical, Broadway or pop. I would love to stay where I am now – a mix of everything.
The music kind of possesses me when I sing. So whenever I start to sing on a show – I mean, first, I’m nervous, and then when I get into it, it’s just like I feel like I’m the person who sang the song first.
I love to shop at Macy’s. It has a huge Guess section and lots of Jessica Simpson stuff.
I like listening to Beyonce, and I like Jason Derulo. I love his new song ‘Don’t Wanna Go Home.’
Um, well, I made a new CD called ‘Dream With Me’ and it’s out now, and I’m really excited about it.
I like ‘Sponge Bob’ and ‘The Last Airbender.’ I like shows where people get creative to do the impossible.
I look up to Andrea Boccelli and Sarah Brightman. The best part about ‘America’s Got Talent’ was performing with her!
