During her one-on-one interview, Brennan revealed to audiences that she was raised by her grandparents. "My parents had me when they were really young, and, at the time, they were unfit to care for me,” she told cameras. 

She continued: "Luckily, my grandparents stepped in. I get very emotional thinking about my grandparents. They didn't have to do what they did. They raised their kids. They didn't have to step up and say, 'Okay, well, we'll do this all over again from the top. Let's go.'” Adding, “It was hard, but it helped me become strong, independent." Brennan dedicated her performance of “You Are My Sunshine” to her grandparents… and we may have shed a tear.
