New York! I [love] U! You're Officially

I Guess I Prefer To Play Live, But I Don't Want To Have Only Live Cds. I Like Playing Live Because There Are Alot Of Things That Can Happen. I Can Interact With The Audience And Say Some Things To Get Me In Trouble. On The Other Hand, The Studio Is Nice Because You Can Really Take Your Time And Make Something That You Know Is The Best Thing That You Can Ever Do. But Nothing Beats Being Up On Stage In Front Of All That Energy.

I'm Really Happy To Be On The Cover As A Strong Female Who Has Created Her Own Career.

My Religious Upbringing Was Comically Strict — Even The Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaner Was Banned. In Our House, No One Was Allowed To Refer To Deviled Eggs. We Had To Call Them Angelic Eggs. We Were Never Allowed To Swear. I'd Get Into Trouble Just For Saying 'hell No'. If You Dropped A Hammer On Your Toe In Our House You Had To Say Something Like 'jiminy Christmas'. The Only Music We Were Allowed To Listen To Was Gospel. No Wonder I Rebelled.

I'm Okay If Everything Is Honest And Truthful And Relatable. If It's Fabricated And Ill-motived, It's Not Good.

I Am Not A Feminist, But I Do Believe In The Strength Of Women... This Social Revolution Of Feminism In The '70s Really Achieved So Many Of Its Goals-not Every Single One Of Them, Obviously-but I Think We Should Say It's Great That These Young Women Don't Feel Like They Need To Be Feminists.
