Well, Detroit Institute is kind of a key - probably the largest permanent collection of puppets in the US.
I've said this before: a homeless guy in Detroit has more mojo than a millionaire in Jacksonville.
I've performed in Auburn Hills, at The Palace, so I haven't really been in downtown Detroit, but I've been able to be here, and I can really see, what the city was. Like, I can feel why Motown started here and how amazing it was.
I know that's blasphemous when you are from Detroit, but I was never a fan of Motown stuff. I don't care for the production much.
One of my strongest memories is my father playing bongos in the living room in Detroit listening to Motown radio. He was this skinny white bald guy, but he was really moved by blues and Motown and funk.
The thing is, it's that Detroiters are hard workers. We've always been hard workers, even when times are down. I've been able to take that with me, that work ethic, to help me build my career.
I grew up in Michigan, in the Detroit area, so cars are sort of in my DNA.
I act like a native in North America. I eat sliders in Detroit.
I think all males from Detroit have an obsession with cars.
I'm just this girl that grew up in southwest Detroit.
