- “If I had to take a guess and say the one thing that probably everyone in this stadium has in common, I think I would say that one thing would be that we all like the feeling of finding something real, like finding real friendship or finding real love or somebody who really gets you or somebody who is really honest with you. I think that's what we're all looking for in life and I think that the things that can scare us the most in life are the things we think will threaten the prospect of us finding something real. For example, having a bad reputation in our mind could get in the way of finding real friendship, real love, real acceptance, people you really fit in with because you think what if they have heard something about me that isn't true, what if they've got these preconceived notions about me that they heard from gossip and then they never want to meet me and then we'll never know what could've happened. And I think that's why some of us…meaning if not most or all of us are sort of afraid of having a bad reputation because we're so scared of something fake, like gossip, or a rumor about you or a name you got called getting in the way of you finding something real. And so, when it comes down to that fear and that anxiety, it's just all really delicate, don't you think Dallas?”
- May 9 2019 - “Songwriters need to communicate, and part of communicating correctly is when you put out a message that is understood the way you meant it. reputation was interesting because I’d never before had an album that wasn’t fully understood until it was seen live. When it first came out everyone thought it was just going to be angry; upon listening to the whole thing they realized it’s actually about love and friendship and finding out what your priorities are.” - Entertainment Weekly Interview
- May 1st 2019 - Zane Lowe interview when she’s speaking about Reputation - and then you had the real story of the album which was basically about love and real love and real friendship and finding those things in and amongst feeling very misunderstood in a lot of ways in your life” - https://youtu.be/ayE6aGP-3Yw?si=spyg7J6YmkR85lDW
