1
Do you believe in ghosts?
2
Yes.
3
People always make fun of me because whenever they have a sleepover with me,
4
I'll be in bed and at some point in the night there's a hundred percent chance that I will wake up screaming,
5
run around the room, something will be in the room.
6
I will always pick up on the ghost that is there.
7
In my dreams, kind of like I'll wake up and I'll see a guy in the corner.
8
He like banged his head and then I'll be like, we need to save him, we need to save him.
9
Then I'll wake up the next morning and everyone's like, you were crazy last night.
10
And then we search it up and it's like 30 year old man died in room, blah, blah, blah.
11
And I'm in that room.
12
It's happened to me so many times.
13
I don't think they're mean.
14
I usually am pretty scared of them.
15
One of the things on my rider
16
now is they have to scrub the internet for the word haunted beside any place
17
that we go to because they will come visit me in my sleep. So.
18
I started dancing when I was six.
19
My mom was my dance coach my whole life.
20
My mom is one of the scariest people to walk into the room during rehearsals, for sure.

Honestly, my mom would just be like, tell a story and perform from your heart.
22
And she was my biggest motivator.
23
I loved her.

Were you always this ridiculously limber?

And then I did.
28
I also worked with this really intense Russian rhythmic gymnastics coach.
29
She would make me sit on two chairs,
30
one leg on one chair and then one leg on the other and she would like sit on my knees.
31
It was crazy.
32
I was definitely a theater kid.

I'd have like an abs set, a squat set.
40
I was like eight years old.
41
And what were your costumes?
42
They were kind of ugly because me and my mom were designing them, so they were always a little ugly.

But I didn't really get too nervous.

Stages don't really freak me out.

I was in this long yellow dress, and I did this really emotional violin orchestra piece, and it was really intense.
49
What posters did you have in your room growing up?
50
I didn't have any posters.
51
For a while, I went through a really emo phase.
52
I would write everything on my wall, be like, nobody understands me.
53
It was actually like the most embarrassing high school thing I could have done
54
because then we would have people over and then they would see this wall.
55
It was a phase.
56
I loved to play dress up when I was younger.
57
I would always come downstairs and have my mom's pearls and like a beret and like wings on.
58
Every single Halloween, I would be seven different characters mixed into one.
59
When I was three, my mom wanted me to be Bam Bam from The Flintstones.
60
I had bone in my head and then I said I also want to be a cowboy and a fairy.
61
So then I had cowboy boots on, fairy wings, pearls.
62
My mom was like, you are too and you look like a hooker.
63
I was literally like, had her lipstick on, her makeup on, it was crazy.
64

Have I ever crashed a party?
68
I've definitely crashed a party when I was younger.
69
I went to the same school as my brother.
70
I was just like, get me into your parties.
71
I just want to be your friend.
72
I was like, you're not my friend.

It was a time with lots of friction between us.
74
I would just try to get in anywhere he was.
75
I'd be like, why are you here?

It's like the smallest little scar.

My first kiss was on a couch with my first boyfriend in his living room.
89
It was crazy.
90
I remember explaining to my friends, like you will never experience this feeling in your life.
91
It's the craziest rush of emotions.
92
They're like, girl, you're the last one to kiss out of our friend group.
93
Maybe it just made it really amazing in my head.
94
Did you stay together after the first kiss?

It was very cute.

so I'd be like, walk outside and see all the fireworks and be like, for me?
101
My dad's like, Jesus, we're raising a diva.
102
But I'd be like, I can't believe he did all this for me.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
