It has not been AP (this is a different interview), and the title is accurate. Sia staying on doesn't change the fact she quit at one point. And she said that right after trashing the song, and the praise was basically "Oh yeah, it made it on the album and sold well. Guess it doesn't completely suck."

Billboard just took quotes and rephrased entire sections from the Rolling Stone interview, which were posted on the same day. It's AP. Doesn't matter what site you get it from, the source material is still the same, inaccurate, posted multiple times and closed.

That's what was interesting about writing with Katy Perry because, again, it's her voice at the end of the day. She's also quite dominant, and she's extremely analytical. I actually quit within the first hour of our first session. I was like, "Can we be friends if this doesn't work? Like our whole songwriting dynamic?" [Editor's Note: Rolling Stone has changed this sentence to reflect a correction from Sia] And she was like, "I love it. It's like a puzzle to me. It's like a crossword." And I was like, "But this is boring for me. The analysis is totally boring for me. It feels like the enemy of creativity." It was so cool to be able to have that conversation on why we wrote in such entirely different ways. I'm glad I didn't give up on it because I actually did get a song out of it, and we also really had a laugh because we were able to be authentic.

Regarding her time spent with Katy Perry, Sia felt she never quite jelled with the "Fireworks" singer, whom she describes as "quite dominant, and she's extremely analytical. I actually quit within the first hour of our first session." Perry convinced Sia to stay on, which she says she's now grateful for as one of those songs also ended up on the new album.

Billboard taking one quote and writing their own words around it doesn't mean it hasn't already been posted.
