"Christina Perri has confessed that her debut single &amp;#039;Jar of Hearts&amp;#039; changed her life.  The singer debuted the song on So You Think You Can Dance in June 2010 before she had even secured a record deal and revealed that the performance single-handedly started her career.  &amp;quot;When my song was on... So You Think You Can Dance my life changed that night, like, it was very fast,&amp;quot; she told MTV News.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s 2011, and that was last year [and] with the Internet everything [it&amp;#039;s all very] &amp;#039;right now&amp;#039;. So when the song aired on the show, by midnight, I never had to go back to waitressing again. Perri - who will release her debut album Lovestrong on May 10 - went on to say that she is aware of how lucky she is to be able to pursue her dream.  &amp;quot;I just existed; I didn&amp;#039;t exist and then I did. I flew to New York City, I signed a record deal like, boom, boom, boom, boom. And it hasn&amp;#039;t stopped, which is a good thing,&amp;quot; she explained.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m trying to stay grounded and focus and keep doing what I&amp;#039;m doing every day, but it&amp;#039;s been this magical thing where, like, I don&amp;#039;t have to wake up and cover my tattoos and be a waitress. All the hard work... ended up really working out. I&amp;#039;m grateful.&amp;quot;  Watch Christina Perri&amp;#039;s video for &amp;#039;Jar of Hearts&amp;#039; below:   "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
