When what you do is play characters, every day, all day, I wasn't really interested in playing a pop star on the weekends. I wanted to be myself, and it slowly turned into not being me at all, so I just didn't really see the point.

Lately, I've been getting too much attention with the Met Gala and work going so well that I try to find rejection in my day.
