Call Me Maybe songstress Carly Rae Jepsen is featured in the latest issue of Glamoholic, where the star chats about her newest album, as well as her family and friends and the upcoming Billboard Music Awards.

“I think the only thing that I ever really consider when I’m writing music or working on a song is if it represents something that is really true to me.” Carly said when speaking of her new single, “I wanted something that has the element of being flirtatious, angst and sort of a little bit more confident. In a song like ‘Tonight I’m Getting Over You’ it’s really representative of my different sides of my personality so I felt really comfortable moving forward with it.”

Carly revealed that there are still a bunch of different sides of her personality that we have yet to see, “There’s a whole rainbow of colours that I have yet to showcase.” She said, “Whenever I go to write or put out a CD it’s always the type of music and sound that I’m most passionate about. pop music is a total love affair that I’m having right now.”

As for the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, which are tomorrow night in Las Vegas, Carly will be attending the show and is up for nine awards during the night. How did Carly react to her nominations?

“I feel extremely flattered!” She spilled. “It was an amazing surprise! I think I found out the day when I was in Canada seeing my family and friends. We all kind of discovered the news together so it was really, really exciting for us. My family and everybody knows exactly how long that I have been dreaming of this and working hard at it. So, it’s really exciting to see things like that happen.”
