What happens when you're a child professional is that you have to be, well, professional. You're taught not to have tantrums, to always people-please.

Part of my affinity with urban music comes from being on 'Kids Incorporated,' 'cos we used to sit around and listen to Chaka Khan and Prince, and I got influenced by all that. Then gangsta rap got started, and I was infatuated with that - maybe that's why I'm fascinated by guns.

I call my therapist every other day. It's not a one-stop shop. You have to push away all that negativity in your head. Face it, name it, let it go.

I'm very ambitious, but I also love myself - which means I try to take care of myself.

Men scream and go crazy in the gym. I'm a silent workout partner, but when my adrenaline gets up, I talk trash.

The electro scene is all over the clubs now: groups like Duck Sauce, Empire of the Sun, even MGMT. But I get inspiration from everywhere. I'll go to the gym and put on old albums - Guns N' Roses or old Jay-Z.

I'm very lucky about my family, because they're just a really solid family. I owe everything to them.
