‘Paris – we were shooting my album cover shoot and doing Fashion Week. We were in Paris so we had to (find time to record). New York – I spent most of the summer here so again we recorded here. LA – I live there and a lot of producers and songwriters live there too. It was just a matter of timing and the people I wanted to work with,’ she said.
