very interesting you're from Indio
California um and I had never heard of
this before this segment but you
actually were humming in
uturo fun fact I did not know that
babies could do that yeah I didn't
either so when my mom was pregnant with
me she went in for an ultrasound and you
know the doctor was listening he was
listening for a heartbeat and he kind of
like takes off his headphones he kind of
throws them down and he's like
Andrea you need to listen to this I I
don't even know what I'm hearing it
sounds like whale sounds she's singing
in your stomach and my mom was shocked
she was like you're lying but she
listened to it she heard it I looked it

sometimes babies will sing in their
mom's stomachs and that recording is
available on
itun did your mom listen to a lot of
music my mom is a singer herself so I
mean I was always listening to her
saying probably it from the wom what is
would you say is the best advice that
you've been given since you started this
journey oh my goodness to stay true to
myself to be myself throughout the whole
process I remember after my audition
both Luke Bryan and liel Richie came out
to me no cameras no nothing they just
came out to me and they were like hey
you're going to kind of be thrown into
this and you're going to see so many
talented people and they're going to be
so different from you and and you're
going to think to yourself that you need
to change and be like them and change to
kind of fit into their mold maybe genre
maybe sounds maybe rasp whatever it is
and he said don't do that you need to
you have something special you need to
continue to be yourself and and hone in
on that that is a great advice and they
clearly saw
something that they knew was really
special when those two say it you know
it means something I mean to be to do to
do this this competition you're under a
lot of pressure oh each and every week
what did you learn about yourself
through the process oh my gosh I learned
that I am so much bigger than I ever
thought I mean I can I realize that I'm
not you don't have to stay in the box
that you think you're put in that you
kind of put yourself in I mean and and
honestly the judges they pushed me to to
get out of that box to stay myself but
to try different things I always thought
that I would be the girl who just sat
behind the piano cuz she had no stage
presence and could not interact with
with people in a crowd and I learned
that I just love performing I love
running around a room and having a good
time so it sounds like they gave you
really really good advice all through
the process abely
