There’s a difference in scale, but I’m still the same girl trying to tell her story through music. Let’s say it’s been a roller-coaster that you learn to ride; thank goodness I’m not prone to nausea .My new song, Harleys in Hawaii, was inspired by a romantic motorcycle ride with him while I was filming American Idol in Oahu.I love a theme, and I love to narrate a story from head to toe. That translates into larger-than-life wardrobe. I have a big over-the-top personality, and I have an outfit to match that.It’s a combination of keeping myself both interested, stimulated, and giving what I’ve always given to my fans — an audio-visual feast. I have a great team that speaks my creative language, but also offers perspective to help me look at things in a fresh manner.Bollywood has fascinated me always. I met Priyanka (Chopra Jonas) years ago before she made her mark in the US. I’ve always wanted to familiarise myself with the Indian stars.It’s been seven years since I came to India; so, I’m definitely going to bring new songs, and new set design elements. You’ll hear songs like I Kissed A Girl and Harleys in Hawaii.
