Speaking withV Magazinefor their summer 2023 issue, Chance talked about how her and her siblings' upbringing as the children of the influential music figure has made them all ambitious.
“Growing up, we’ve always been around different artists and in the studio with our dad,” Chance shared. “Even though we don’t want to pursue music right now, just seeing his work ethic and persistence has definitely been a big contributor to the drive we have to pursue our dreams.”
Her own dream is acting, having started taking theater and improv classes at just 5 years old.
“Acting has helped me evolve more as a person, and it’s helped me step out of my comfort zone,” she told the outlet.
