I think just being a '90s kid - I was not a Backstreet Boys girl, I was definitely into NSYNC.

I'm totally into the emotional aspect of things.
Jillian Hervey
The main thing I like to do is have a mix of the '70s glamour and emulate a lot of ladies I love, like, Diana Ross, Chaka Khan, Donna Summers. I remember thinking that as a young girl, they were so cool and iconic. I missed that!

Once you train you develop your own aesthetic and your confidence. So, I think as I grow I'm learning how to be a singer. I'm training my voice and being on stage and singing and dancing.

I love the creation process [of music] of it and then sharing it, so I think that was the shift. I never thought I was going to be on a label in general, I was like 'Oh, I wouldn't do that,' and then we ended up on the same label basically.

People just try to put you in a box and I don't see myself in any particular box. I'm making my own box. There's no way I would be able to make the music I'm making without dancing.
Jillian Hervey
I would feel weird having someone style me. It would have to be a collaboration. I've had those experiences and every time it happens I don't feel good. What's the point of putting all this work into something and then when you present it, it's not you?
Jillian Hervey
I quit piano and violin because it felt too rigid. It was just my thing, something I fell in love with from a very early age.
Jillian Hervey
[My mom] put me in dance class when I was really young just as a thing to do and I loved it. I remember being excited every time I went, no matter how tired I was - it was the one thing that I always liked doing.

Because of the time we're in, it's so easy to just blend all of it together and it's kind of like you're listening to everything all at once.
Jillian Hervey
I think, more importantly, it's about who is your core team? Who are the people around you that are going to fight for you and make sure that's all protected?
Jillian Hervey
Sometimes words come easily and sometimes they don't. Most songs take me twenty minutes to write.
Jillian Hervey
In New York everyone just kind of knows each other.
Jillian Hervey
South Africa was something that just kind of hit me.
Jillian Hervey
What kind of art do I want to make? What do I stand for? What inspires me? And then to have people in return respond to that... I think that's the greatest thing because throughout dancing, I'm always looking for that.
Jillian Hervey
I think the world tries to put people in a box, like this is the only appropriate way to be beautiful.
Jillian Hervey
More than anything, it's been a transition into embracing my destiny. I have everything around me to be able to do this properly. Whether or not I was hiding from that early on, I think now it's great to feel that way. It's just the journey.
