I have nine Grammy Awards. I wouldn't have that if I couldn't sing.

I'm a human being and I fall in love and sometimes I don't have control of every situation.

I'll put on a song that I really like and do bicep curls with two kilo weights the whole song.

When I hear a great new record, especially when it's by someone that I respect and admire, then a part of me is like, Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't I write that record? It makes you sick, but in a way it can be a great thing. It makes you want to go back to the lab and start writing again. Maybe it will inspire you to try a little harder.

I think it's important for women to be around other women and learn from each other.

Everyone's not good at everything, it's ok to depend on someone.

My focus is my art, and that's what I love to do. I have to be really passionate in order to do something. I've turned down many things that I just didn't believe in.
