Furtado Felt Like A Fraud
Comments
Canadian pop beauty Nelly Furtado felt a fraud as a musician because of her immediate success.
The singer rocketed to stardom at 21 when I'm Like A Bird became an instant hit in 2001, but she felt success came too early for her.
Furtado says, "The world becomes this huge buffet table for you to take what you want. That's about when I started to feel a bit like a fraud as a musician.
"I had this hang up about Sheryl Crow. I thought she was amazing and to me she was the one woman in the industry who deserved all this respect.
"The reason I thought she had the respect was that she'd spent 15 years struggling to make it, because she was 34 when she had her first huge hit, not 21 like me."
