"I love red carpets. You get to be Cinderella for a night. My life before the launch of my career did not involve a lot of ball gowns. Now I wear so many, and I love it," she told the outlet.

And it is a fun world. It's a very specific world. It's a tense world," she told PEOPLE earlier in June. "Like the floor is lava. You commit to that context and you go for it.
