I'm a very private person, so getting used to that kind of limelight was never going to be easy.
I wasn't a cheerleader or in the choir. I didnt have loads of friends.
I remember when I was in school, they would ask, ''What are you going to be when you grow up?'' and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride.
I don't like to assume anything; I'm just learning, The top is the Chanel dress that I wore last year.
That was it. Suddenly you hit puberty, and it's like, you know, thrift stores! I just started deconstructing everything from thrift stores.
That was the first time we'd worked outside the group with songwriters, and it was really awkward. That's what defines us as a band, writing, so it was a brave and crazy experiment, It was uncomfortable in the studio, but Hella Good has become one of our staple songs,
I don't expect to fit in right away but I do sense that the fashion world is rooting for me, too. I'm not being treated like a celebrity wannabe fashion designer. But even if I was, it doesn't really matter because I'm doing this for me ... but it does feel really good when you have a hit,
(My inspiration) was so strong with 'Love. Angel. Music. Baby.. I knew exactly what I wanted to do, and it was just like I had such a fire of inspiration.
it was a slam-dunk. She was really great to photograph, she lights up the frame.
We've been all around the world and that's my favourite part of everything I do.
Act as young as you feel. You're not getting older; you're getting more entitled to be your fabulous self.
No one can force me to do something unless I'm passionate about it.
I`m like a peanut butter sandwich.
Life is short and you've got to get the most out of it.
