Take My Picture Hollywood. I

I Had A Boyfriend Who Told Me I'd Never Succeed, Never Be Nominated For A Grammy, Never Have A Hit Song, And That He Hoped I'd Fail. I Said To Him, 'someday, When We're Not Together, You Won't Be Able To Order A Cup Of Coffee At The F***** Deli Without Hearing Or Seeing Me.'

Off To The Studio In My New Whip.

I Feel That My Fans Have Cultivated My Talent And They Continue To Nurture Me.

I've Been Actually Really Very Pleased To See How Much Awareness Was Raised Around Bullying, And How Deeply It Affects Everyone. You Know, You Don't Have To Be The Loser Kid In High School To Be Bullied. Bullying And Being Picked On Comes In So Many Different Forms.

Akon Is A Very Talented Songwriter To Work With. His Melodies, They're Just Insane. It's Funny, I Think About Him A Lot When I'm Doing My Melodies Because He's So Simple, And He's Just Been Great. He Keeps Me On My Feet, Very Grounded, But He Also Puts Me On A Silver Platter, Which Is Always Very Nice. So It's Been An Incredible Influence. It's Like Every Time You Work With Somebody That's Better That You Are, You Become Greater.
