ONE - FIRST OFF, WHERE DID YOU GROW UP? TELL ME ABOUT YOUR CHILDHOOD.

“My childhood was great. Growing up, my dad used to be a professional athlete so I didn’t get to see him a lot, but I always had my mom around so I don’t feel like I missed out on anything. I grew up in Chicago, Illinois, and I feel like growing up there has really taught me a lot about life. Spend one week in a big city and you’ll realize that people are less compassionate to your issues and more concerned with their own. It’s not always cozy and safe out there, and I think that growing up in Chicago really helped me to realize that. It helped me grow up.” TWO — DID YOU ALWAYS KNOW THAT BEING IN THE INDUSTRY WAS SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO DO?

“Not really. I always knew that I wanted to do something out of the ordinary, ‘though.  I couldn’t imagine myself having a nine to five office job. I’ve got better things to do than strut around in a pencil skirt and heels trying to impress my womanizer boss for a raise, right?” THREE —- WAS YOUR FAMILY SUPPORTIVE OF YOUR DECISION TO JOIN THE PROVE MANAGEMENT AND COME TO THE HOUSE?

“100%. My mom was the one who signed me up. My dad’s a bit more concerned about the whole thing, ‘though. I think he might be scared I’ll go completely berserk in here. That hasn’t happened ‘though… Yet.” FOUR — HOW ARE YOU FEELING ABOUT HAVING TO SHARE A HOUSE? DO YOU GET ALONG WITH THE OTHER RESIDENTS?

“I don’t think sharing a house will be a problem, there should be enough room for all of us in here, haha. I ran into Bash earlier today. I met him a few years back in a nightclub in Chicago. He’s a good guy, we’re friends.. As for the rest, I don’t really know them yet, but none of them seem completely horrible. ” FIVE — WHO WERE YOUR INSPIRATIONS AS A KID? WHO ARE YOUR INSPIRATIONS NOW?

“I’ve always looked up to my mom, because she got married to an athlete, and being married to an athlete is hard, you know? Wait, let me explain. When you get married to an athlete, you’re expected to represent your husband. So every time you go out in public, whether it’s at a family gathering or on a red carpet, you’re representing your husband and you’re expected to act and behave that way. You see, your image is his image. If you fuck up and do something stupid, it’ll affect his career. So if you’re too busy partying, drinking or working on your own career instead of focusing on his, that’ll affect the both of you. I’ve seen my mom give up a lot of things, including her own career, to be able to be the best wife she can be, and I really, truly admire her for that. I want to be as good of a wife as she is one day. - I don’t really look up to any celebrities. I look up to anyone who knows what they want and go for it, I guess. If you want something, so get it. You know what I mean?” That’s how Marie is with male singers and athletes tbh lmao. SIX — WHAT IS ONE THING THAT NO ONE IN THE HOUSE KNOWS ABOUT YOU? THAT WOULD PROBABLY NEVER WANT THEM TO KNOW?

“I probably wouldn’t want them to know that I have a son... yet. I don’t think I’ll keep it a secret forever, but I do feel like it’ll be best not to talk about it right away. It could affect my career, and possibly someone else’s too, so.” SEVEN — IF YOU WEREN’T PURSUING THE FAME PATH, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’D BE DOING RIGHT NOW? 

“I’d probably be in Chicago working at my uncle’s restaurant to save up some money, which is what I’ve been doing for the past year and a half. I’m still living with my parents right now, but I really want to move out to Los Angeles soon.”

EIGHT — IF THIS DOESN’T WORK OUT FOR YOU, WHAT DO YOU SEE YOURSELF DECIDING TO DO?

“I think I’ll just go back to Chicago and, like I said, move out to Los Angeles. I have a few friends there who live in the city, so I’ll be able to move in with them.”

NINE — IF YOU COULD ONLY PICK ONE, JUST ONE, RICH OR FAME, WHICH WOULD YOU PICK?

“I think I would rather be rich, because you can always buy your way into fame. My mom used to be friends with Nicole Sherzinger’s agent, and one of his clients literally paid him to make his wife famous. I believe he paid around $10,000 dollars, and the agent got his wife a lunch date with Kim Kardashian, some paparazzi pictures and a TMZ headline in return. So yeah, money over fame for sure.” TEN — LAST BUT NOT LEAST, DO YOU SEE ANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT ALSO HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE SAME CHANCE AS YOU AS COMPITETION?
