I think Nina Simone has had an amazing journey. She was spicy and she had attitude and she didn't care, she wanted her money in a paper bag and don't mess with me and I've been doing some research on that so.

I write to music, and Nina Simone is always on my playlist to write to. I mean, she's inspiring. She's truthful and real and raw.

I love Cate Blanchett; I think she's brilliant.

I liked Camille Paglia. I liked her even better when I heard her talk.

I'm pretty obsessed with Sara Bareilles. She is so talented, and I feel like I would learn so much from her.

I love Miranda Lambert; I think she's wonderful. I love the song 'Love Letters' and 'Famous in a Small Town.'

Miranda Kerr is absolutely lovely.
