When I perform on stage, I often pretend to be someone other than myself to bring a certain emotion or intent to a song.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I'm onstage, I'm acting.
When you were on stage, you could be absolutely open about your emotions and indulge them and express yourself in a way that - in real life - I wasn't doing.
I'm a performer. I've just been one since I was a little girl. I used to pretend all the time.
When I'm acting, I'm in a different place, singing is the last thing on my mind, and when I'm on stage, there's no acting at all involved, not even presentation, it's just who I am.
Onstage, you can be anything you want to be. In concert, I might project a different side of myself, but I wouldn't do anything I'd be embarrassed of.
When I'm onstage they know I'm honest, and I try to be as humble as I can.
I don't do anything specific for the stage. I'm just myself. I can't stand still for five seconds. I'm normally quite active, so that just comes out on stage. If I see people react to me and my music, I just have to give back and express myself.
I feel like sometimes I get even more goofy onstage than I am offstage. I'm not trying to make the music less than what it is. Even if it's hard for me and I have to think about a lot of details, it's none of the audience's business. I don't want them to feel that I'm having a hard time.
I am a performer. I go on stage and make a fool of myself.
Before I go on stage I pretend that everyone loves me.
