The singer was just 16 years old when she first rose to fame with her hit single 'Sweet About Me' in 2008.
However, the teenage star admitted that she was upset when she began finding scathing attacks of her performances on several music blogs.
She told WENN: "I would read bad reviews and at first that stuff would get to me. And blogs - these people can say whatever they want on these forums. I was reading all that lot, and now I don't. I stay away from that."
