Teairra Mari: None, there are no guest appearances on my album.

Sindy: Ok then, who would you like to work with in the future?
Teairra Mari: Pharrell. I love him! That's it, right now, that's who I really, really, really want to work with.

Sindy: What was it like to work with Jay-Z on this album?
Teairra Mari: He's great, he's very hands-on with his artists, he's very involved and he's very opinionated, which is a good thing because I really respect his opinion.

Sindy: How have you been dealing with your skyrocketing success?
Teairra Mari: It's been great. I've just been dealing with it day-by-day, keeping God first, keeping my priorities straight.

Sindy: What do you do in your downtime?
Teairra Mari: I don't know when the last time I had downtime!

Sindy: So what would you like to do if you had some downtime?
Teairra Mari: Rest, go to the movies - I love movies.

Sindy: What's your fave movie?
Teairra Mari: Baby Boy.

Sindy: Are you touring for your album?
Teairra Mari: Yes, later on this year I definitely am.

Sindy: So when you go on tour, what will be the one thing you won't leave home without?
Teairra Mari: My cell phone.

Sindy: Do you have any good luck charms?
Teairra Mari: This ring that Beyonce gave me.

Sindy: Beyonce! Wow, so are you good friends with her?
Teairra Mari: Yeah, we met through Jay-Z.

Sindy: So Teairra, what's up next for you?
Teairra Mari: Hopefully movies, fashion, that kind of thing.

    Though I am in an online school recently I went to one of our many events for online students. Everyone seemed to know someone and it didnt take long to see cliques forming. Most of the "popular" girls so to say were wearing tight skinny jeans, some sort of weird thick tongued sneakers, a "butterfly" shirt, you know big on the arms, then flowy, and fitted around the waist? and very dark makeup :P Poor me showed up in capris, a tank top with a loose sweater unbuttoned, my hair all curly and almost no makeup with my running shoes ;D
