My husband really loves the red [lipstick], so I keep the red because I want to keep the husband.

This last year I kind of stopped working out. I think my body just needed a break. And so I did that, and focused more on feeling good as opposed to beating myself up.

I remember so vividly the first song I ever wrote. It was called 'Different People.'

When you write a great song, it just blows you away. When you write a song that connects with people around the world - I mean like it actually transcends language barriers - you see how it can affect people, and it's quite a tall order to follow up on.

Fashion is an extension of your personality, and I've always been obsessed. I always want to have something different than everybody else.

It was such a turning point to find that I had a talent and I had something to contribute, somewhere.

I remember when I was in school, they would ask, 'What are you going to be when you grow up?' and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride.
