Here she looks back on the moments that changed her perspective on work, love, family, money and health.
I can’t really go on dating apps. Three of my friends got married off of a dating app, so I’m like, “maybe I should go on a date now,” but that would be so awkward for everybody. People talk about Raya but that’s all bulls***. We’ll see what happens.
My grandson is one of the best things has ever happened to me. He’s eight months old and my hero. I look at him and he’s not hung up on anything. He’s not mad at anybody. He doesn’t have anywhere to be. He doesn’t have any bills. He doesn’t have to clean up anything. He doesn’t have to apologise. I admire him more than anybody in the whole world and I dread the day that any of that is taken away from him.
My attention span is declining. I’m having a really hard time. I’ll get up to go the kitchen to get milk, get distracted by something stupid, and then two hours will go by, and I never made it to the kitchen. I’m trying to figure out what to do about that. That’s probably my biggest thing that I’m dealing with. Focus.

At one point, I had five very expensive cars at the same time, and I didn’t even drive them. I just ended up wrecking them. I got a bit carried away with bespoke shoes. I used to get everything custom made and that got really expensive. Suddenly I couldn’t go to the store and buy normal shoes. I had to go to a cobbler. And that’s $3,000 a pop. I had a lot of jewellery. I did a lot of stupid s*** to my house too. I spent half a million dollars on landscaping. Trees and plants, basically. Was it worth it? No. They died.
I’m still very proud of “I Try”, and I’ll never forget it, because I sing it all the time. It’s a great song and I think it deserves everything that has happened to it, but I do just wish – because I feel like I have so many great songs – I just wish I wasn’t known for one song. That still bothers me, but I’ll never not be proud of that song for what it has done for me and my family.
50,000 people screaming your name feels liberating. It feels good because then my mind and body is just free to just do whatever feels nice. If I f*** it up, it won’t be the first time.
