I used to be afraid to use the word 'pop' to describe my music, but underneath my tough, bad-girl sound, there's some fun.

The fun of being in the pop world is you can really play with people's perceptions of what the word pop means.

I don't follow any of what the pop world is doing. Sometimes I feel like that's a weakness, actually, that I'm too in my own bubble. But I'm really just interested in the inner journey. And pop is all about the exterior world, the material.

Pop has to exist and it's a great thing.

When you're part of a pop phenomenon, you have so many opinions shoved down your throat.

I'm a pop princess at heart. Pop is about distilling what you want to say and making it easy. And the way I write isn't about making things easy. It's a weird juxtaposition.

Music is for people. The word 'pop' is simply short for popular. It means that people like it. I'm just a normal jerk who happens to make music. As long as my brain and fingers work, I'm cool.

I've been lucky enough to work in pop culture, especially with people right before they popped.

I am totally unapologetic about pop music.

My pop did a little time.
