On Delivering “Main Pop Girl Energy”

“I love the main pop-girl energy. It’s so fun for the fans and the character. I can be that girl; I can do that for the videos, for the red carpet, for the performances. For me there’s a time and a place to do that. There are so many sides to me that I also love to embody.”

On Her New Line with Versace:

“It’s one of the very rare occasions where I work with someone and it really is exactly how you envision it. They gave me the opportunity to go into the archive and pull out Gianni’s early prints. We were able to bring [those] back a bit, modernise [them] and create a fun summer collection I feel very proud of.”

On Her Outlook on Music Today:

“Lots of artists [are] finding out their own way of how to do pop, whichever way it’s embodied. I think we now live in a world where there are no genres per se. We say it’s pop because it’s what SOPHIE said – it’s the loudest, brightest thing in the room. But that can come in so many different shapes and forms. And it can be anything.”

On the New ‘Barbie’ Movie She Also Stars In:

“Barbie, the doll, has this idea of what perfection should be. The film – and there’s a lot of diversity in the cast – is touching exactly on the buttons that maybe it presses, and shows a different story.”
