Do you have anything you'd like to say to Simon?
From the beginning, I think that Simon saw potential in me, and when I didn't fulfill that potential, he was kind of disappointed. I just want to say to him that I think he's an amazing person and what he does is awesome. He's very opinionated, but I learned more from him than anyone else while I was on the show.

Did you feel any animosity from other contestants because you had staying power?
Not at all. Everyone is a family. We really truly are, and we are really close. I think that was actually the hardest part of leaving was leaving that extended part of my family.
