Vanderwaal also responded to some fan questions about her music career, such as when she first started writing and which song from her EP is her favorite. According to the Suffern native, she started writing songs at the age of 11, and she loved recording “Gossip Girl” the most. When one fan asked the singer what inspires her to write songs, Vanderwaal said that inspiration is everywhere so she usually finds them in movies, books and her own experiences.

Meanwhile, following the release of “Perfectly Imperfect,” Vanderwaal was given a list of singers that she could potentially collaborate with. While speaking with Rolling Stone, the “Beautiful Thing” singer said that there are some plans for her to collaborate with Shawn Mendes and Meghan Trainor. Vanderwaal idolize and follow both artists, but she is still most drawn to her favorite, Katy Perry.
