“This is amazing. That was a really tough category, wow. Thank you to the fans. I would love to have an opportunity to thank the people I made this album with because they’re amazing and we had so much fun,” the then-29-year-old singer said.

“Okay, wow… I did not think I was going to win this one. This album really felt like a new beginning. I also really love my record label, Universal and Republic. Monte Lipman, Lucien Grange, thank you for being so generous to me and allowing me to make whatever music I want to make. As a songwriter it’s so thrilling to me that I get to keep doing that,” she added.
