It was so draining. Going to parties to rub elbows with so-and-so and act like it's no big deal, when really all I was doing was hoping I'd have the success they had.
From Katy Perry
My career is like an artichoke. People might think that the leaves are tasty and buttered up and delicious, and they don't even know that there's something magical hidden at the base of it. There's a whole other side of me that people didn't know existed.
I have always been the kid who's asked 'Why?' In my faith, you're just supposed to have faith. But I was always like 'why?'
I feel really blessed because of where I come from.
I really like to look like a history book. I can look 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I'll pull that '80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings.
I've actually always wanted to make something like an acoustic record.
Honesty has always worked for me.
Sometimes if you want to achieve something great, there will be curveballs. You just have to dodge them every once in a while.
I feel like my secret magic trick that separates me from a lot of my peers is the bravery to be vulnerable and truthful and honest.
I always knew I wanted a great man of God, someone who was going to be an inspiration for people and also be a lovely husband and father.
