I've always been an animal lover my entire life.

I think having wild, huge hair, is me being my own version of a lioness.

[New York] gives you room to be weird; you can be yourself and you can wear whatever you want. No one is really going to judge you because everyone is doing their own thing.

I'm totally into the emotional aspect of things.

It's so important to embrace what you have because if you don't, that can be the root of very self-destructive habits, which I think people waste a lot of energy on.

We had spent a lot of time in London [with Lucas Goodman], which has been amazing, but also it was kind of a homecoming and we felt so surrounded by a specific community of people who are just so New York, so unapologetically themselves and so creative.

I think just being a '90s kid - I was not a Backstreet Boys girl, I was definitely into NSYNC.
