Having already released a recorded version of the track three years ago, the 24 year old tried her hand at it live when performing at EIF’s ‘An Unforgettable Evening’ cancer benefit this week.

Hard at work at her sure-to-be stellar tour, the Grammy-winning diva sat down with Rock Center’s Brian Williams to dish on the aforementioned topics and more in a very candid interview.  The uncharacteristically relaxed diva also talked about the challenges she’s faced selling records.
