At this point of my life, I'm 32 and I feel sexier than ever because you know what you want.

My future daughter is not going to go through what I did.

I like to be as free as possible at all times.

When you're part of a pop phenomenon, you have so many opinions shoved down your throat.

I'm an artist, and expressing myself in a sexual way, no matter how that changes throughout the years, is something that has always come naturally to me. At this point of my life, I'm 32 and I feel sexier than ever because you know what you want.

I talk openly about my past and what I've gone through - abuse being something that was very real in my household, and a lot of chaos growing up as a child. I think that I naturally just gravitated towards music that I could really feel on a deep level - and that meant sadness. I was able to connect with that at a really young age.

It's an amazing thing to say, 'I'm beautiful,' without feeling like you're cocky.
