Toward the end of my pregnancy, I felt really big - I gained about 40 pounds, which is a lot for my size.

I'm embracing many different things, but it's all feel-good.

I think that the best way you can get honesty across in your music to connect and relate to people is to be motivated by personal emotions, stories and feelings.

Now everyone is a critic.

I really don't spend any time on the Internet, so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect.

I was brought up in a household of chaos and I never felt stable at home. At a really young age, I decided I was never going to feel helpless, I was never going to feel weak around a man, and I was never going to rely on anyone. Independence was a big, big thing for me.

I just get really bored with sticking to the norm and having the proper conservative image. That's just so not me.
