On whether she wants to be famous anymore:
“Every day I grapple with, ‘Am I done with music?’ Maybe I’m just not meant to be famous – I’m crashing and burning and behaving erratically. It’s not for me because I have so much anxiety. But why would God put me in this position if I wasn’t supposed to be doing this? So I just keep trying to rise to the occasion. But I’m also just like, ‘Please, the occasion is beating my a–.’”
On getting a BBL:
“I gained all this weight from being immobile while recovering and trying to preserve the fat. It was just so stupid. But who gives a f-ck? You got a BBL, you realise you didn’t need the sh-t. It doesn’t matter. I’ll do a whole bunch more sh-t just like it if I want to before I’m f-cking dead because this body is temporary. It just wasn’t super necessary – I have other sh-t that I need to work on about myself… I need to get my f-cking mental health together… Not to say you can’t do those things simultaneously, just, for me, I realise wherever you go, there you’ll be. But I love my butt. Don’t get me wrong. My booty look nice. And I’m grateful that it looks pretty much… I don’t know, sometimes natural, but I don’t even care. It’s something that I wanted. I’m enjoying it. I love shaking it.”
On dating as a celebrity:
“I try not to think about that, because I start to get nervous about dying alone and sh-t.”
“My current relationship? Oh, I don’t know. I don’t know. I might just Tracee Ellis Ross it. She’s fine as hell and has no children and no man… that we know of, anyway. I love that for her and I might like that for me.”
On fame:
“It always exposes the ego and vanity when you’re in historical [places] or beautiful nature and you’re like, ‘It’s clearly me.’ But that’s the psychosis of fame. It makes you so paranoid. You’re not even in touch with reality, because you’re so scared.”
