In case you're wondering whether I lip synch, the answer is no... people think so because I sound so good.

I am a woman of theatre, I'm a librarian of theatre and I love all different kinds of music and all different kinds of expressions.

You have to be unique, and different, and shine in your own way.

I already am a product.

I never care personally what people say about me. The music, and the message - this will always be more important to me than people thinking I'm the best.

Being a woman in the pop world, sexuality is half poison and half liberation. What's the line? I don't have a line. I am the most sexually free woman on the planet, and I genuinely am empowered from a very honest place by my sexuality. What's more primal than sex? I mean, it's so honest. If I didn't think I had the talent to back that up, I wouldn't have done it.

I do not have to be high to be great. I do not have to be drunk to have a good idea. I can sit with my thoughts and not feel crazy. I can do it... I can do it without the dope.
