'Some of the greatest artists become artists because they have had the most pain in their life,' Katy told DJ, a Longview, Texas, native.
Katy swallowed her tears, then collected herself and added, 'It's about if you can take that pain and turn it into a purpose,' telling DJ, 'Keep being brave.'
Everyone wanted to hug DJ but they couldn't due to coronavirus restrictions, so the teen's father Don held her as she got her golden ticket.

The contestants' relationships with their parents played a central role in the season 19 premiere, which saw singers talking to their families via a wall-sized screen.

'Yeah,' Claudia admitted. 'But I'm really, really nervous.'

'This is your time to shine,' Kellyanne emphasized. 'But remember honey: Winners are people that are willing to lose.'
Really nervous: 'Yeah,' Claudia admitted to her mother. 'But I'm really, really nervous'
When Claudia walked onstage before the judges, Katy immediately asked, 'Are you okay?'

'It's a lot, but I only want to spread love,' Claudia said. 'I love a compromise, and I do agree to disagree with my mom and my dad.'
In a pre-taped video, Claudia recalled her challenging childhood, saying, 'I had to move to Washington, DC, when I was 12, and I hated it. When your mom's working for the President of the United States, who you very much disagree with, it's really hard.'

Katy asked Claudia if her mother still hugged her, and Claudia affirmed that she did, adding, 'She loves me, I love her. Our relationship is just–it's a little iffy… Most of my life my feelings had been suppressed, so then I got social media and I was like, ''Now my voice is being heard''.'
Claudia felt the Internet could be 'a very, very dark place,' but emphasized that her music saved her when life was 'going downhill.'
'Now I kind of want to get out of the controversy, get out of the drama, get out of the political whatever and let people know I am a singer and that this is what I want to do,' she said.

'Claudia, not going to DC, honey,' Katy said. 'You're going straight to Hollywood.'
