Everybody, even me, sometimes had to compromise on something, doing things we know to be wrong, and this happens doing whatever job in the world. But a singer must have the courage of saying no.
I've always wanted to be my own person and stand by the things I believe in and I thought I might lose that independence if I ran for political office.
