Because I came out as a singer, I took the time to get an acting coach.

It was always part of the plan to move into acting.

I have the time needed to support the album and tour.

I don't think about my previous success. I'm happy that the work I've done has been very successful.

I don't feel I made any sacrifices at all. I'm doing my best to juggle.

It's Friday and I'm ready to swing. Pick up my girls and hit the party scene.

I wanted to be different and original but still have it be something my fans could get into. There also are some big, beautiful ballads. I told my producers that I wanted tracks that are going to blow up in the clubs, but I also wanted songs that were very melodic and with a lot of instrumentation.
