I think 'One Woman Army' sums up the overall picture. I talk about love, about life, and I talk about what I want and would hope for and what I need as a woman. It kind of just says it all, you know?
I don't believe in bright, cheesy colors that are applied from roots to tips. I'm not really into that. But I love the more fashion-y way of adding color to your hair methodically.
I love when people have their own creative vision, when a person stands out and tries different things.
Sometimes you get bored of the same moves, but you know that there are those moves that those fans love.
My inspiration is European fashion. I'm really into Euro fashion, and I also love rock n' roll. That's the mentality that I like to have when I'm dealing with fashion.
I've always had a strong love and a sense of care for kids. And the one thing is evident and is so true - the kids are our future.
I use Revlon waterproof mascara. And then I love a smokey eye when I perform because I think it's important to make your eyes pop when you're on stage.
I tell myself that water is my medicine and that to stay well, I have to drink a gallon of it every day.
Juggling being a mom and an entertainer is a challenge I face every day.
I'm a tomboy at heart. I always like to say that I'm an ordinary girl doing extraordinary things.
I think it's so fun when I get to work with women writers in particular because we really understand the core story or foundation as women. That's so important to me that the authenticity is there, you know, from the place that I speak from for my women. Having other females with me helps me dig deeper.
I do not like going to the dressing room and trying on millions of outfits. I just look at something and hope that it will work. I try it on at home, since I don't like going through the whole process.
I actually have two songs I did with Nicki Minaj. We didn't even plan on doing it that way, but it was an organic connection and just a really solid connection she and I had musically.
You're only a new artist one time, and I can just say I'm so blessed. I feel so inspired to do other things, to be so much more.
