I don’t know how to even introduce this amazing teen pop sensation! Savannah is such a kind, sweet, down to Earth, funny, and talented girl who is living out her dream doing what she loves singing! I have known about Savannah for over a year now. I attended every one of her live chats, and I even spoke to her on her fan number a few times. I ended up emailing her manager because I really wanted to interview Savannah a HUGE inspiration of mine. It is funny because when I ended up getting the email back saying I could interview Savannah I was in tears, especially since I was going to be interviewing Savannah over the phone. I am so honored and blessed to have had this opportunity to interview Savannah. I definitely was so excited and actually pretty nervous about talking to her. It had been almost a year since we have really talked, and I am so glad to see Savannah’s career climbing. She is just one teen who won’t stop achieving her dreams!
