On her breakup with Calvin Harris:
'It was the right guy at the wrong time. I was about to start a
tour, and he was also all over the place. There’s only so much you can
do when you don’t see each other. I really admire people who have
long-distance relationships. It’s an incredible achievement. I couldn’t
do it.'
On Black Widow:
'As soon as I heard it, I was like, ‘This is the f*cking song.’ Katy Perry co-wrote it – it felt nice to have all women involved.'
On sex:
'I’m very proud to say that I think about sex. It’s what
everybody thinks about, whether they say it or not. For me, sex is a
form of getting to know a person – feeling someone’s skin.'
On loving yourself:
'You have to come to terms with loving your body. Stand naked in
front of the mirror and say, ‘I’m f*cking sexy.’ That’s where it
starts.'
