“I’ve spent a long time trying to figure it out,” she says. “I don’t really know the formula. As an artist, you just sit in a room and you write songs, and you hope people will get to hear them.” She adds, “Plus, I’ve been acting as myself on TV” — she serenaded prom-going high-schoolers on Degrassi and a couple of lovebirds on The Bachelorette —′ “so that’s not hard to do.”

And a John Mayer collaboration might be in the cards — the pair recently discussed working together. “I love the way he writes,” she says. “He’s one of the coolest people in the mainstream. He’s doing real music and not selling out. He’s someone who doesn’t get enough credit.” Rolling Stone

You submit your version of Pocket Full Of Sunshine either online at VerisonVIPtour.com, or on the bus which travels round with me and is parked normally right outside the venue. I listen to all those versions and I handpick the winner, and the prize is that you get to come to San Francisco and sing with me at the very final show of my whole tour." Source

Q: What do you think is the secret to keeping a great relationship?

A: I don't really know the secrets, but for me, the main challenge I have is long distance and traveling all the time. You just make it work. I am really grateful that I live at a time when the Internet and phones are available. I use that video cam. I love that. I love my phone. I am kind of inseparable from it.

Q: Have you experienced the downside of fame?

A: I have had paparazzi stalking me, particularly when my music hit first in London and car chases. If I am with a guy at all, it is crazy, they will chase me with a guy, get out the lights, take pictures and that kind of thing. I am not in there everyday mostly because I am out of the country or I am working. I'm kind of diligent in what I do. Source
