This wound up being the “biggest mistake” the most “huge mistake” of her entire career.

She was even quoted saying, “[Someone] sent me an email one time that was: ‘Hey, check out this new artist. I’d really like us to work with her because she was working with me for Unsub [Records].”

“It was a song called ‘Ocean Eyes,’ and it was just a blonde girl, and I was like, ‘Meh, boring. -- Big mistake. Huge mistake.”
