it's funny when we're young how we try to escape from our parents. we think we will do so much better than them. but you grow up and realize they did their best with what they had. it is not easy being an adult.

“The Warrior of Light costume symbolizes Ukraine nation’s fight against darkness. Like Archangel Michael, who defends Ukraine with a sword, it protects us.“

If there’s anything I want anyone to know about bisexual and nonbinary identities, it is that ambiguity is good. We don’t need the exact nuances of our identities to be encapsulated within the label we choose. If you take a hundred nonbinary people or a hundred bi people, they are going to have as many differences as they do similarities and that isnt a flaw: it’s a strength. The diversity within our communities is amazing and it is amazing that a label can remain useful for so many people despite how different we all are.

Midnights is a wild ride of an album and I couldn’t be happier that my co pilot on this adventure was Jack Antonoff. He’s my friend for life (presumptuous I know but I stand by it) and we’ve been making music together for nearly a decade HOWEVER… this is our first album we’ve done with just the two of us as main collaborators. We’d been toying with ideas and had written a few things we loved, but Midnights actually really coalesced and flowed out of us when our partners (both actors) did a film together in Panama. Jack and I found ourselves back in New York, alone, recording every night, staying up late and exploring old memories and midnights past. We were so lucky to also work with our brilliant collaborators Sam Dew, Sounwave, Lana Del Rey, Jahaan Sweet, Keanu Beats, William Bowery, and Zoe Kravitz. Laura Sisk was our excellent engineer. The wonderful and wise Beth Garrabrant took the album photographs. Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows. Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights. Which is out now

There's a word I've resonated with since my early teens: Fearless. I've always wanted to be bold, brave, and fearless. Ever since I claimed that word, I've gone through chaos. Hell. I realized in order to be fearless you have to walk through hell. And I can't walk through hell once and say I'm fearless. It could be a fluke. I have to walk through it over and over and over until hell doesn't scare me anymore. Each time I faced it, I walked out and healed from the burns. It hurts but I'm alive.

In order to be fearless, hell cannot scare me. And it doesn't anymore.
