In the interview, she opens up to the magazine about the success of "The Way" and some major drama with a former cast-mate.

You’ve been working on your album for three years. What’s taking so long!?
I’m a big perfectionist! I’m trying to channel super-confident women like Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey and Beyonce, because I realized that if you want something, you really have to go for it, just like they do.

On her confidence faltering when she was filming "Victorious":
I worked with someone who told me they’d never like me. But for some reason, I just felt like I needed her approval. So I stared changing myself to please her. It made me stop being social and friendly. I was so unhappy.
