I think the difficult thing is the transition between TV competition series and going into the actual music industry. There still seems to be a slight disconnect there.

I think theatricality is just one way of performing. I don't think it's a better way or the way, but it's my way.

I'm a freak in the fondest way possible.

If sexy scares you, don't listen to my music.

I think, for the majority of my twenties, I was always so concerned with what I didn't have, or what I still wanted.

Pop is a little bit theatrical. That's the whole vibe. That's the point - is that it's great music, great melodies, great hooks. But, on top of it, it's a presentation. There's a showmanship about it. And that's why I wanted to be a pop star.
