I Don't Have Anything To Hide.

When I Was Fourteen And First Started Going Out, I Always Wanted To Be The Opposite Of Everyone Else. So I Would Go To The Club In A Polo T-shirt And Pants And Sneakers And A Hat On Backward, Just So I Would Not Be Dressed Like Other Girls.

I Would Have Never Dreamed That My Career Would Be This Successful. I Grew Up In An Average Home In Barbados, And We Didn't Live In The Best Neighborhood. But I Was Never Aware That We Were Poor; My Mom Never Made Us Feel That Way. She Loved Me Unconditionally. She Made Us Feel Anything Was Possible And Instilled In Me Such Confidence.

Fashion Has Always Been My Defense Mechanism.

When I Cut My Hair, The Whole Sound Changed, My Style Changed.

Sometimes It Takes A Thousand Tries To Win
