How was Fashion Rocks in Brazil?
Fashion Rocks was really cool. I was so delighted to see my Brazilian fans and I performed a special remix of Fantasy which went down really well. It had the full Carnival feel! Who are your favourite fashion designers then? There are so many to mention. At Rio Rocks I performed for Calvin Klein. I wore Dolce & Gabbana at the premiere of Precious at Cannes. I love Versace, Chanel, Dior and Azzedine Alaia. Your album’s called Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel – in what ways are you imperfect? And are you really an angel? I’d written a song called ‘Imperfect’, but it didn’t make it onto the album. The lyrics of that song address the fact that the world puts so much pressure on us – especially on women – to be perfect and look a certain way, and that’s impossible because nobody is perfect. I know I’ve tried to be a good person, but I am definitely no angel! You’ve worked with tons of rappers, including Gucci Mane on ‘Obsessed’. Who is the most gorgeous? I loved working with Gucci on Obsessed.
