“I want to be taken seriously as a musician.”

“It's hard to be taken seriously by anybody above the age of 18 or 20 or something when you're doing a social media tour.”

“When you do a meet and greet, every single girl wants something special from you - an extra little hug or something. And that takes something out of you, almost - like, emotionally, you know.”

“It's crazy to see all the fans, and it's cool to see them all support each other - it all feels like one big family.”

“That was pretty crazy, going from singing in my room to singing in front of 5,000 people.”

“You can't take it on that you're responsible for somebody else's well-being, but you can be positive and bring them up.”

“I definitely want to have a career in music.”

“When we were presented with the opportunity to start this group, we were just like, 'Why don't we?' The name stuck. You can also apply it to tons of different things. Why don't we spread positivity? Why don't we love each other?”

“You have to be so willing to hug and say 'I love you' so much. And you have to talk to every single person individually - which I love doing, but it's actually, like, really emotionally tiring.”
