Carly Rae Jepsen Knew She Wanted To Be a Performer Since She Was 7

Carly Rae Jepsen raises her arm high while performing during her concert at Terminal 5 in New York City on Friday night (March 25).

The 30-year-old “I Really Like You” singer spoke with the NY Post ahead of the concert, talking about how she always knew she wanted to be a performer.

“Music will always be No. 1. That hasn’t changed since I was 7 years old. Acting is something I get joy from, but music is what I’ve devoted my life to. I still write songs even when I don’t have a project to write for,” Carly Rae shared.

She added, “When I was at school, the other kids had a new idea of what they wanted to be every second week. For me, nothing ever beat being a performer and singing.”
