On business: “I’m super-collaborative in a lot of ways. I obviously have final say on everything and sometimes I’m wrong. I would say I’m right seven times out of 10. Three times out of 10 I make mistakes but I learn from them — but I’m not a monster. I take it in. Especially with people who have been in this industry longer than I have and who know what they are talking about. I’m just a creative, but thankfully, I use both the right and left sides of my brain so I’m not just head in the clouds.
It’s, like, ‘I know it costs this much and we’re going to distribute it that way.’ And I’m always going to place people around me who are smarter than I am in that capacity. We all have a conversation and best shoe wins, just like best song wins.”
On role models: I think
Rihanna has done it well. She has such a great eye and ear and she definitely has that foresight. Her relationships with Puma and Dior and whatever is coming next, feels like she’s a pusher of her industry
. With Beyoncé and Rihanna it’s very obvious they know what they are doing and you can see that they are micromanaging as well. They are multitaskers.
I love what Charlotte Tilbury has done.
I’m a really big fan of this girl Isamaya who does these makeup creations that are like art pieces. I really want to work with her in the future. I think Jessica Alba is pretty cool in the way she is doing her Honest brand because now we have an affordable choice for organic and babies and everyone is having the conversation about health and what are ingesting. I think she’s gonna do really well with that
On mastering the Internet:
In the beginning you’re, like, ‘I have this ambition and no one can tell me no’ and you get it, right? Then there’s this period where everyone has a say and then the whole world has a say. Everyone’s talking, everyone’s chatting then you’re, like, ‘Whoa, s–t. Did I start these conversations or am I part of the convo or what is this?’ So it does like seep into a slow drip and at a certain point if you don’t cut it off it will eat you alive. Or you cut if off and you get it back. I am no longer hanging onto the rocket and riding for dear life. I’m standing and surfing the rocket. I got on top of it. I’m riding it like a f–king cowboy at a rodeo now.”
On Santa Barbara: “I still spend a lot of time there because I grew up there. I grew up in the poorest part of Santa Barbara. People associate it with the French Riviera, almost Monte Carlo, like beautiful American rich people,
and we were like super poor. Actually my boyfriend didn’t even believe me and I was, like, ‘I’m going to drive you by my house’ and you can Google Earth it. I basically had a crazy church-filled, God squad upbringing. I lived on food stamps and a food bank in Santa Barbara, which is like a crazy juxtaposition to live in beauty and still have a bit of a struggle, but that’s just because of the nature of the church. Anyway, Santa Barbara, I love it. I make a lot of music there ‘cause it’s only an hour and fifteen minutes away from L.A. at the right times and the energy level is so dramatically different — people, priorities, community, connection.
