I love the studio. It's my place to escape and to create and to try anything.

You cry and you scream and you stomp your feet and you shout. You say, 'You know what? I'm giving up, I don't care.' And then you go to bed and you wake up and it's a brand new day, and you pick yourself back up again.

It takes time to really understand your body shape and it's taken me years to know what I can and can't pull off.

Although religion was around me my whole life I never felt it was forced upon me. It is my centring, my grounding, the soul of me. I feel I'm nothing without it.

I think shoulders are sexier than cleavage.

A lot of songs are empowering because everybody who has been through a hard time in a relationship or in their lives can relate to it.

I always feel like I'm rehearsing. I'm a workaholic. But youve got to let go and trust and enjoy! I'm a real perfectionist. Its probably my biggest disadvantage. But as long as I can go out there, trust in the work and just have fun, thats what matters.
