Opening Ceremony is my number one favorite place to shop here. It's the only place I'll shop in New York with my son. All of the sales people are so cool; the music is great; it's just like a big fun house, so he stays entertained.
From a very early age, I decided that I wanted to be able to do my music but still be able to live a normal life.
I have always had tremendous respect for my sister as an artist, as a woman, and now as a mother.
You just have to know that the more successful you get as an artist, the less of a normal life you have. It's a trade-off.
In my experience, as a young black artist, you have to fulfill an archetype, or be a token - and I was unwilling to do that.
I wear short shorts. After 10 years of strenuous ballet, it's the least my legs can do for me.
