• I feel a strong affinity to Ke$ha and Katy Perry and a lot of these women who are really pushing the girl power femme fatale thing. It's fun and it's unapologetic, and they tell women they can do whatever they want, and that's true, and that's a message that I want to carry, to tell girls they can do whatever they want.

• For people to even be interested and to reach out and say "I can't wait for you to come out with something", it's just so inspiring and motivating.
