I Love Being Able To Be Political

If You Only Believe That You're An Artist When You Have A Big Advance In Your Pocket And A Single Coming Out, I Would Say That's Quite Soulless. You Have To Have A Sense Of Your Own Greatness And Your Own Ability From A Very Deep Place Inside You. I Am The One With The Litmus Test In My Hands Of What People Need To Hear Next.

I Study Everything That I Do To Become Better All The Time At My Craft. The Beauty For Me About Being An Artist Is That The Dream Will Never Die Because I'm Not Obsessed With Material Things And Don't Care About The Money And Don't Care About The Attention Of The Public But Only The Love Of My Fans. For Me It's About Keeping The Dream Alive Of How Much More Devoted, How Much More Honest, How Much Better Of An Artist Can I Become? That's The Only Fear That I Ever Have, That The Dream Will Die.

I Work All Day, Do Research, Sketch My Ideas, Prepare For Performances.

A Girl’s Got To Use What She’s Given And I’m Not Going To Make A Guy Drool The Way A Britney Video Does. So I Take It To Extremes. I Don’t Say I Dress Sexily On Stage - What I Do Is So Extreme. It’s Meant To Make Guys Think: ‘i Don’t Know If This Is Sexy Or Just Weird.

The Whole World May Not Understand Me, But I Don’t Care.
