I came from a different mind-set growing up, and my mind has changed.

I'm a woman who likes to be courted, strongly. Never say never, I guess you'd say. I'll let love take the lead on that.

I think you become more relatable when you're vulnerable.

Find out what your gift is and nurture it.

Throw your stick and stones, throw your bombs and your blows, but you're not gonna break my soul.

Unfortunately, I think a lot of people are affected more by the idea of fame than the actual work ethic involved. A lot of them just want to be reality TV-type people who don't do anything.

My style icons were Gwen Stefani, when she was in No Doubt, and then Shirley Manson in Garbage.
