Fab Chick: Honey Mag Interviews Amerie
What is it about her?

"It's this one thing" that just makes us adore Amerie. What it is, we haven't quite put our fingers on yet.

When it comes to controversial artists, Amerie's name is usually no where on that list. Aside from seeing her front row at fashion shows looking fab or making appearances to promote her album, she manages to keep her name clean. If you are wondering who the 30 year old is dating these days, you might want to focus on something else. It doesn't look like she'll be giving up that info any time soon. She prefers to keep quiet about her personal life. And rightfully so, who could blame her in today's social media overload.

The singer recently released her fourth album, "In Love & War" under her own label. Who knew the Fab Chick was boss lady for her own label under Def Jam called Feenix Rising. You just got to love a Fab Chicks on the grind and Amerie is definitely showing signs of that! Honey Mag recently did an awesome photo shoot and interviewed the lovely singer. Head over to Honey Mag for the full interview as she discusses keeping her personal life private, her new album, and keeping in touch with her fans on twitter. Here's a snippet of that interview.

Amerie on relationships:
I think in general I’ve always pretty much had a good handle on what’s going on in a relationship. I’ve always trusted my intuition and I’ve always known that my intuition is right. Now whether I decide to go with that or not is a different story. But I always knew, and I tell women this all the time, intuition will never lead you astray. Never. We have it for a reason. But we choose to try and turn it down or try and turn it off. And that’s something that I’ve always known but it wasn’t until I got a little older that I learned to just listen to that, because I think we all hear it. Women, we always know what’s going on. Whether we choose to act on that is a different story. But I’ve just learned to just go with it. And that’s something I’ve definitely learned over time. If every woman would just go with it, we’d be so much better off. We all have a sixth sense. That’s why men think we’re so crafty sometimes but it’s like “Honey, its not that we are but we just don’t put it all on the table.” No guy can match that.
Amerie on doing what she loves:
This is what I do, because I love entertainment and I love to be creative. I love making music. It allows me to be creative whether it’s through producing or whether it’s through writing because I write as well. But, you know, I just want to be seen as being creative but I also want to continue to love what I do. So for me, I always made a decision early on that I wouldn’t try to forget who I really am, that I wouldn’t try to just lose myself in everything. I’m not into secret marriages or big relationships for press and all those things. I’m into just doing me, being me and creating my music. And that’s it. People happen to take a picture of me walking around, that’s cool. None of those things bother me. As long as I don’t lose my sense of what’s real. Whatever that means, as long as I have my own sense of me then everything can just be put into perspective.
