11:17 - 17-May-2008
"I want to do everything," she tells Entertainment Weekly magazine. "I want to make an album, do Broadway, act in films, open restaurants, homeless shelters. I want to do so many things. I'm really goal-oriented, and if you're driven and focused it will happen for you."
Syesha also addressed comments from judge Randy Jackson, that she peaked late in the contest.
"A lot of people have asked why I was holding back," she says.
"Some of it was nerves. But it wasn't my game plan. It just worked out that way. I wasn't holding back - I just became more comfortable with myself as the show went on. And the more negative comments I got each week, the stronger I got and the harder I worked. The minute I made the decision to enjoy myself, everything got a lot better.
"That's when the real Syesha came out. And there's more to come. An hour TV show only shows you a glimpse of somebody's life. There are going to be ample opportunities to see more of me."
