I chose to make this album more R&B because it’s something that I haven’t done before and I just really wanted to experience what it would be like.
About the R&B inspiration on her new album:
I chose to make this album 更多 R&B because it’s something that I haven’t done before and I just really wanted to experience what it would be like. I don’t know if it necessarily best represents who I am so I don’t know if I’d do it again on the 下一个 album, but 你 never know. Sometimes I go into an album prepared to record say a pop album and it comes out pop-rock, so 你 just never know what can happen!
About going back to acting:
I definitely want to go back into 表演 at some point, but right now it’s not my 最佳, 返回页首 priority. I’ve really just been focused on performing, and making 音乐 is my number one passion. Maybe in a little while I’ll go back to 电视 或者 电影院 but for right now I just want to focus on music.
About Twitter and the people she follows:
I follow people that I find really interesting 或者 people that I’m 老友记 with. Everyone that I follow I think I’ve probably had some sort of encounter with, except for Britney Spears, but 你 have to follow Britney Spears! I’m really thankful for twitter because it’s almost like a direct line to your 粉丝 - 你 can tweet something and it’s instantly put out into the world in front of 6 million of your fans. I 爱情 it. I think it’s a great way to communicate with your fans.
About the success female pop stars have right now:
I don’t really put myself up there with artists like Katy Perry 或者 Rihanna. I still feel like I’m working really hard to get there. Hopefully one 日 I’ll be at their level, but for right now I’m content with where I am. But of course I still want to achieve those kind of goals and have those aspirations.
About the British singers she admires the most:
I 爱情 James Morrison. He’s one of my favourite musicians. I also 爱情 Corinne Bailey Rae, and Amy Winehouse of course was so incredible, but I think 阿黛尔 is my favourite.
About her musical influences:
Kelly Clarkson and Christina Aguilera were really my two main influences growing up, but thanks to my mom I also had a lot of other, older influences like Motown and stuff like that. I loved Billie Holiday and Aretha Franklin.
