See a few excerpts below
On her music videos
‘’My videos are heavy on fashion and dance because that’s what I want my fans to know me for – an artist. It’s important to stick to what our fans know you for. Our role as musicians is to inspire our fans, right from fashion to dance. To set trends. It’s the only platform I can use to inspire the people that love and follow me.’’
On stage fright
“Goodness, I have the biggest stage fright, you cannot even believe it. Minutes before performances I get engulfed with nerves. This is why I never give interviews before performances. Interestingly, immediately I get on stage I get into character. I think I’m a natural actress.” On how she deals with stage fright, she continues, “I try so much not to talk. I keep quiet and to myself. I also chew gum. This helps to calm my nerves down.”
On pressure from fans
“The least favorite part is not being able to control my life easily. It takes a lot to stay true to who you are. I’m still managing that. The other part is failure to deliver to my fans’ expectations.”
