1. I have this little scar, because when I was young, I got bit by a dog. I thought I was giving love to this dog but the dog thought that I was threatening him, so he bit me and there’s a little scar on my finger.

2. I actually showed all my hidden talents, but what I can show is an elephant noise that I can do, it sounds a little weird but it’s better to see it in person.

3. My first song I ever wrote was “Walkin’” in my 19 to 20 album. It was my first song that I’ve written with [producer] NATHAN.

4. I saved a person’s life before. Someone was drowning down in the swimming pool so I just jumped out of the sea and swam over to her and caught her. I brought her back outside of the pool and she really thanked me. True story.

5. I think my right eye is slightly bigger than the left.

6. When I’m home, I just want to get out of this whole outfit so I wear my shirts inside out sometimes and I wouldn’t know it until the next day. I see the tag in front of me and that’s when I realize that I wore it inside out.

7. First song that I ever sang was Rihanna’s “We Ride.” I was in this music academy and the first song that they gave me was this song.

8. I want a superpower where I can go from time to time, so if I click myself, I would be in another country and if I click myself I’d be in another place. Moving around the different timezone.

9. When I come home and lay down in bed, I make this ‘Hughhhhh’ sound. When I feel everything is done and I’m ready to sleep.

10. I do dream a lot, sometimes the same dream for 3 days in a row, which feels really weird. I feel like it’s trying to tell me something important.

5 BONUS FUN FACTS!

11. I made a reservation to get a new tattoo. You’ll see it.

13. I get personal training, I go for a run or a walk and sometimes if I eat too much desserts, I try to cut them off the next day.

14. Recently, I’m into painting as a hobby. There’s a big portrait of something with the paint number, and I would color that section. So that’s my new hobby.

15. I don’t cook. I usually order or take out from the place. These days, I go for chicken breast with salad. No fun.
