It's who I am I don't have to try hard
It's hard to be stuck with people that you love, when nobody trusts
When I'm home I go out with my friends. I go shopping, I go to clubs and I go to movies, ... There's just a certain way you have to do it, and I know how to handle myself and I know how to take care of myself and where I can and can't go and when I can and can't go. It's all do-able. I still have a life. I may have to work a little harder at it, but that's totally fun because most of the time I'm busy anyway.
I'm with you , ... Could it be any more obvious?
I would have freaked out if I just had one, now that I have five -- I'm just trying to pinch myself,
I was signed by L.A. Reid on Arista Records when I was 16. He understood me and believed in me. Arista folded and I got put on RCA or whatever, then there were new people there, and every six months it changes and more new people come in.
I felt like I was kind of back living a normal lifestyle, just with a regular job of going to the studio every day. That really was a break for me, actually.
If something is meant to be, it's gonna work. If two people believe in something really strongly, I think a longdistance relationship is easy. They just make the time to be together. And you have to remember that any relationship is going to be hard...mostly because you're two different people and you have to figure stuff out.
I think it's important to find a line that suits your body, your body type, that you're comfortable in.
I'm a chick, I love clothes, and I'm also in the entertainment industry, so I've done a lot of photo shoots, video shoots, red carpets. So I learned very quickly that fashion is going to be and will be a big part of what I do.
I wanna do a movie! Anything that I connect with, really. I read scripts, I've taken some acting lessons, and I feel like that's definitely my next goal.
I don't know if people realize how much I tour and how much time I spend writing, but I really enjoy it.
Whenever I'm done with an album cycle, I still wanna write music. If I'm bored when I'm at home, which never happens, my first instinct is to go to the piano and bang something out.
I'm famous, so I can't, like, really walk around in malls and stuff like that. I don't really have as much privacy.
