Diana: Upbeat songs allowed me to showcase my personality, and that's also critical. I always wanted my performances to show a good side of me. I wasn't here just to sing. I was here to perform for people every week.
Diana: West Side Story. It's a totally new experience for me. I've always loved theater
Diana: Because I came in second place, it makes me want to work harder.
Diana: At school my nickname is "the National Anthem Girl".
Diana: (On the direction her new album is taking) I like to call it 'rop,' a lot of pop with a little R & B and some funk and dance.
Diana: I grew up listening to Patsy Cline. I was a huge Patsy Cline fan. I still am. Even though she's considered country, I think of her more as a blues singer. She's got a great blues voice and she has such an amazing story, which I always loved. I knew her entire greatest hits album backwards, forwards and inside out. My mother would try and skip over some of the songs to make the tape shorter and I'd go, "Hey, you missed one! You missed one!"
Diana:(On her goals during American Idol) I'm planning to be the youngest contestant in the Top 32, and I'm planning to be the youngest person in the Top 10...
