I embrace my body, and I embrace everything about myself. Coming full circle is a celebration of freedom and happiness because that's what [my new album] 'Lotus' is representing. I'm embracing everything that I've grown to be and learned to be.

Honestly, I just want to have a good time, listen to great singers and great music, and just use my instincts, as usual.

I hate working out - I have to mentally push myself through it. I can get very whiny, saying things like, 'I can't do it!'

Call me a slag. If it means being a strong woman, I'll gladly be that.

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'm not really religious but very spiritual. I give money to this company that manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis. More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God.

In the end you’ll see you won’t stop me.
