"We love performing live, but it's also a lot of hard work. We put in long, grueling hours, and people don't see that part of it."

"I know how to use the fame, when to turn it on and off. It's cool, 'cause along with the name I get all the attention from girls, get to go anywhere I want-like, just walk into a basketball game. And I get stuff for free-shoes, clothes, and things like that. I'm blessed."

"I thought being a teen star was all about performing, but I also get to be a leader, a role model. I get to show kids younger than me the right way to do things. I'm having a great time right now."
Mario, 16
"Teen stardom is better than I ever imagined. As long as I keep giving the fans what they want, I'm not going anywhere else."

"Being a child star is tough. Not everybody believes in you or thinks you can do a lot of stuff, 'cause you're a kid. I wouldn't be doing this if my dad weren't doing it. It's hard being away from my family, going on tour, but it's also a lot of good times. It feels good to know the fans really care."
Lil' J, 16
"No matter how big I get, or how much better I get, I'm still gonna keep practicing, 'cause I'll never become as good as I can get."
