supermodel tried
If I tried to start modeling right now, I wouldn't be a supermodel because it's all about celebrity.
consensus genuine leader ultimately
Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.
amazing inherited
My father always made an amazing meatloaf, and I've inherited his skill. Leftover meatloaf in a sandwich? Come on!
annoyance front love producers sit stay video
I don't stay in my trailer. I like to sit in video village, probably to the annoyance of some producers and directors, because they really love to talk about actors, and they can't in front of me.
predictor
One predictor for divorce is contempt, which to me is just another word for disrespect.
content crystal fly looking movies opened predicting women
Predicting what content is going to fly is like looking into a crystal ball. I try not to say, 'Yeah, 'Bridesmaids' opened the door to make more movies about women.' I mean, did it? I don't know; where are they?
cities lived san
All through my twenties, I lived in very walkable cities - Philadelphia, San Francisco, and New York.
disagree
In so much of politics you're not allowed to disagree with what's been agreed.
putting
When I'm in show mode, I can't even think about putting on makeup; I just have to be centered.
kept music outlet people private
I got into writing music when I was, like, 14 or 15. It was a very private thing for me because I used it as an outlet and emotional release. I kept it very close to myself and didn't tell too many people about it.
artist
I like rap. I like anything with soul. I like anything you can feel, anything that makes you think that the artist had to make that song, or they were going to go crazy.
dressing everyday hand love music performance shows style
I love fashion. I like dressing how I feel, and my music shows how I feel - they go hand in hand. My performance style is pretty much the same as my everyday style.
beasts crazy embrace feminine matter men mind music powerful theme throughout whether
It's a big theme throughout my music to just embrace everything about your own mind and to always feel powerful. It's not just a feminine thing, but for men, too, whether they feel weak, or strong or crazy or reclusive. I want everyone to feel powerful no matter what little beasts they have in their head.
thinking people groupie
I don't think of anyone as a 'groupie.' People who connect with my music are just inspiring and amazing.
