She also discusses songwriting, her creative process, collaborators, live performance nerves and the artists who have inspired her most.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tCara Delevingne: I didn\u2019t wanna do this album unless I felt like I was metaphorically exposing my innards. For some people, I think it might be a bit of a shock that I\u2019m doing music, but it is something I\u2019ve done since I was a kid.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Tetris Kelly:<\/strong> <strong>Welcome to Billboard News. It\u2019s Tetris, and I\u2019m so happy you\u2019re here with me today, especially knowing that you had a show last night, so you were busy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tI would say so. I\u2019m excited, though. I\u2019m excited to meet you.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>No, excited to meet you and hang out.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tAnd I wanna just start off by saying I didn\u2019t know you were doing this interview, by the way, and I\u2019m really glad it\u2019s you.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Well, I love to get to meet new people for the first time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tYou can tell that when you do your interviews. And it was really nice.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Thank you. Yeah. Well, let me start by asking the question that everybody\u2019s gonna wanna know, OK?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhat is that?<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>What\u2019s the catalyst for this moment? Why did you decide this was the time you wanted to release this?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe catalyst for me was, it wasn\u2019t about if, it was about when. Some things you just can\u2019t control. There was a point in which I\u2019m not someone that prays a lot, but I was praying every day to make something powerful, beautiful, creative out of the pain I was going through at the time. This was a period of time where I was trying to get sober. And for some people, I think it might be a bit of a shock that I\u2019m doing music, but it is something I\u2019ve done since I was a kid. But it\u2019s been something really personal for me, quite sacred. Something that I was always really shy of because I just thought everyone else was so good, and it was something that I used as therapy for myself.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>Keep watching for more!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> Katie Cao<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/video\/cara-delevingne-sobriety-releasing-her-music-video-interview\/\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cara Delevingne opens up about the deeply personal journey behind her music.
