WHAT MADONNA’S TAUGHT HER
I have to keep the touring with Madonna separate from my own recording career. It’s really just a very fun job. I’ve learnt so much from working with her – the power aspect about how to use what you have is an amazing thing. I learn more stuff about myself as I go along. Now I’m more of a chilled out person. When I first started working with her I just wanted to be like her – I think I misinterpreted a lot of things. The fame. I just tried to be like her and didn’t do things my own way. It was funny looking back on it. Now I’m about my music, my motherhood and I love having the freedom to do my own thing. I appreciate everything about working with Madonna – it’s been such an amazing opportunity.

IS MADONNA A BOSS OR A FRIEND?
She’s my boss, the boss. And I want it that way. I have my friends and buddies and yes we are friends, but she’s a boss too. It pleases me that I work with a conscious artist – I couldn’t work with anybody who wasn’t about that.

Thanks to Dean and we wish him good luck for his new website.
