Dancing was always part of my culture growing up in Barbados. When I shot my 1st video I worked really hard with my choreographer to perfect the routines.
I definitely want to go and do some more research. My dad used to make me sit outside on the steps all night long, looking for a UFO flying by and I had to do that for years.
Fashion has always been my defense mechanism.
I can compensate for all my weaknesses with my fashion.
My way probably wont work for most people but the more I got naked the more comfortable I felt.
I have an ugly day every month; pimples on my face, I'm fat and in a bad mood. It's more like an ugly week!
I never know what day it is. Never, ever, ever.
Don't be afraid to be yourself just because you're not like everybody else in class. If you want to dye your hair green and that's what makes you happy, then dye your hair green, no matter what other people might say about it. Not everybody is going to like you - that's the world we live in; that's reality.
You will never be stylish if you don't take risks.
I am a child but I have to think and act like a woman, this business forces you to.
Anything that feels familiar and comfortable [is home]. It's wherever I feel safe and safest. Most of the time, that's just Barbados. It's warm, it's beautiful, it's the beach, it's my family, it's the food, it's the music. Everything feels familiar, feels right and feels safe. So, Barbados is home for me.
Music is what I love to do, so you'll never have to worry about me not doing that.
The thrill in fashion for me is taking a risk and daring myself to make it work. Even when I go shopping, I always buy something twisted and I know I'm going to have to figure out somehow to pull it off and make it my own.
Never underestimate a man's ability to make you feel guilty for his mistakes.
