As a mother, the one thing that always goes through your head is, You're never enough. You never can be enough - or do enough - for your kids. It's a never-ending issue for me.
Whereas before I was a young, blonde girl who would do what she was told. I know who I am as a person and I'm getting damn strong.
I'm not a diva. I know what I like and I know what I want.
I don't like going out. I hate clubs. I hate being around too many people.
I like meeting all my fans and signing autographs, although it can all get a bit crazy. Yesterday, for example, a boy just came over and planted a big kiss on my face! I was like, 'Hello?'
On her Slave For You video: It's a very sensual video so I thought it was a good reflection of the song. My Mum thought it was... different.
Sundance is weird. The movies are weird - you actually have to think about them when you watch them.
I'm like everybody else.
Media over here, coming to ya like a world premiere. Trench coat and my underwear, let's go with this freak show.
I'm more straightforward, and I speak up more than I did before. When I was younger, I wouldn't speak up as much, but now that I'm a mom, things have changed.
You can't help but change a little bit, but on the inside I'm still completely the same person.
I love my jeans and my sweats-I’m really just a tomboy at heart. So it’s really hard for me to be like Kim Kardashian and be makeup-and hair-ready every time I go out of my house. I’m not a believer in that, you know? On the other hand, when you do wear those sweats, you’re like, Oh God, I should step it up a notch.
I think it's a positive for girls not to depend on guys.
For me, success is a state of mind. I feel like success isn’t about conquering something, it’s being happy with who you are.
