In the past, I've allowed myself to record songs that I wish I had not, but agreed to for one reason or another.

Being a mom was a full-time job. I was never willing to sacrifice everything for my career.

I haven't always made all of the right decisions from a career perspective, but things worked out in the end.

Back when I first started with Scandal, I felt like I had to carry a lot of the weight because it was up to me to sell those songs.

I love a girl with a good sense of humour, who is confident but who has a sweetness to her - that melts my heart.

I have had long relationships but have never married.

Reading and discovering fiction has taught me how to empathise, understand falling in love and all those complex relationships that people have to deal with.

Cofounders will endure so much together that their relationship is often compared to a marriage.
