On Justin Bieber: Bieber wanted to tour for 'Journals', but Scooter didn't let him because he thought he could die. When Bieber decided to change, Braun started planning his comeback. An intern suggested the Comedy Central Roast because her generation didn't really care for sit-down interviews. Apparently Bieber's struggles were worse than people know.
On Carly Rae Jepsen's E•MO•TION flop: "I think that I tried everything, and it falls on me. I didn’t get it done for her." "Maybe I didn’t push hard enough when I thought I was. Maybe I didn’t get her the right TV look at the right time. Maybe I picked the wrong single.(Run Away With Me should've been the first single smh) The bottom line is, I don’t think this album is done, by any means. There are a lot of great albums that take a year to connect. And I am going to continue being incredibly proud of this album and pushing it every which way I can. Trust me, it’s been a huge fight. If it didn’t do what it was supposed to do, it’s on me." (He better put in #work)
On Ariana Grande's Doughnut Scandal: "Let’s talk about some real stuff. Why are we discussing that when we have real significant issues in the world? Like, gun control. And the fact that a presidential candidate is saying things that I find to be anti-American. These are the things we should be angry and frustrated about." (Nice swerve, but I agree ppl need to let it go anyway)
On If Psy Has Another Chance in America: "It’s such a ridiculous question, and I’ll tell you why. When I signed “Gangnam Style,” it had 60,000 views. And I told Psy I wanted to keep it in Korean, and he thought I was crazy. It went No. 1 [on the sales chart] for 11 weeks. You do that, and then people ask you that question: Can you do it again? I think that we achieved what we wanted to achieve and so much more. If Psy wants to go give it another run, that’s my dude."
