The reality show 'America's Next Top Model' is my girlie pleasure.
allowed four mum music
For four years, my mum allowed only church music in the house.
fully people stopped
I've fully embraced who I am. I stopped fighting with people and just come to realize, 'This is me. This is all of me.'
country
Why should you stay in one place and one country if they're not offering you a job? It doesn't make sense!
hierarchy regular
Conservatives, they're like the Republicans to me. They don't do much. They have this whole hierarchy and boys' club thing going on. That doesn't help the regular person.
late round time walking
Walking round the Champs-Elysees late at night is the greatest time.
trying
I think the one group I am trying to appeal to is the world. That would be big enough.
believe endorsing great label people respect speak truth trying
The people at my label are always endorsing what I say. They say, 'You see the truth, so speak it.' They believe in me. They respect my opinion. At least I have an opinion, and I'm not trying to play it safe. I don't go around saying, 'I think everyone is great, and the world is fantastic.' Everyone has opinions. They just don't say it.
guy inch sanity
I will test a guy to within an inch of his sanity because I've been through too much drama. He has to be 100%.
heck
I try not to judge because I've been judged a heck of a lot, and it don't feel nice.
album bad united
I feel like it's not a bad average for every album I've got in the United States to be nominated for something off the album.
audrey feisty hepburn meets salt
My style is Edie Sedgwick meets Grace Jones, or Audrey Hepburn meets Salt 'n' Pepa. Strong and feisty but still classic.
guy songs trying whether
My songs are always about overcoming things, whether it's breaking up with a guy or just trying to be happy. They're always about being better.
best compared female women
I'm the female Jay-Z. I never compared myself to other women artists. I compared myself with the best, and the best is Jay-Z.
