I had to appreciate other things about music, like the writing and the cadence and dealing with producers. I became a student. I wanted to learn the actual idea of what this industry was before I could creatively speak a lot of the things that I wanted to speak.

I have been doing choreography my whole life, and it's so important to make that marriage between music and the body.

I've always been an outsider kid. But I had always wanted to be in a group - growing up, I loved bands like the Cranberries and K's Choice.

I'm not going to say I'll never rock with a band, because I'm too much of a fan of the aesthetic of a great band. But a girl group? Not again.

I'm just being the artist that I would have loved if I was a child.

The same people neglecting and hating are the ones going through issues in their own lives, and they're scared to face that.

I've always loved literature, and the best books I read were always trilogies.
