I got called to write for Aerosmith, nothing ever came of it, but I ended up spending the day with Steven Tyler and going to his house and we sat down at the piano, just me and him, and he sang for me and played, then he asked me to sing for him, and then we sang harmony together. That was just a big moment where it was like ‘oh my god, my life is crazy!’ It was really cool. Help us to share this great article.

I’ve been close friends with Katy since teenagers, before she was Katy Perry. She’s always been a great resource for me to pull from and watch – from her choice of how public she wants to be about her personal life on down.
