During her chat with the publication the 30-year-old spoke about her relationship with the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
Carly will be performing at Britain's 2016 Brighton and Hove Pride festival, and says her gay fans hold a special place in her heart.
"The music that I'm drawn to is very '80s pop and maybe that's connecting with people? But we've certainly noticed at my live shows that a big part of the crowd has been from the LGBT community. That feels like the ultimate gift because it's my favourite crowd to perform to," she smiled.
"I stand on stage and feel great acceptance rather than judged, which you can sometimes feel when you step out there."
