My eyeliner is part of my face. There are elements that I'll change here and there, but my eyeliner, with little wings, that never changes.

I'm a tomboy, and my style is punk.

We just love shopping. I don't look at the brand; I don't look at the most pricey outfit. Even if it's a dollar, I don't care.

I want to represent Asian women.

I want people all around the globe to know that there are girls in Asia, like me, who like hip-hop and dress uniquely.

Once you have the money, fame, success or power, it's so easy to maintain that, because all you have to do is play it safe.

I don't actually like calling myself a rapper. I'm more a performer.

I don't like to box myself into anything, because I also sing and I love to dance; I do everything.

We're into discovering ourselves as 2NE1. Since all four of us are different, we inspire and push each other.

I know how important '36 Chambers' is, and it inspired me to record 'Lifted.'

Girls in Asia are very obedient, shy, timid, quiet, but I can tell that it's changing, and I want them to be stronger and tell them that it's OK to be different.

I've been a fan of Dave Meyers and his music videos.

Culturally, I'm not 100 percent Korean. I'm very mixed and very open.

I have so many gay friends, and I love them so much because they're fun.

I think it's in my blood: both of my parents are very hard workers and were always working when I was growing up. I love working and what I do.

I'm not against being beautiful or sexy or anything, but I have this 'cool' image that I want to keep.

Love A$AP Rocky. I love his music, and I love his style.

I have makeup on for such a long time that I need to give my skin a break. And at night, I really get clean when I take all my makeup off.

Back in Korea, I'm always in the studio with YG people. I'd be given a song, and I'd cut it.

What I do is all about expressing myself, whether it's music or the clothes I wear.

All our fans have great energy, and that's where we get our energy to perform. They know how to have fun with our music.

I love Grace Jones. She's everything.

For 2NE1, it's always been all about music.

In my point of view, bad girl is not a villain. Like, people in the United States use 'bad' as referring to something cool. So it means 'Cool girl.' I wish CL was like that.

I'm not the standard Asian girl.

Yes, I am successful in Asia. But if you think about that too much, you become boring. Because you don't want to take risks.

A lot of Asian girls love being basic because it's safe. But the thing is, a lot of my fans are those girls, and they want to be bolder, but there's no one they could look up to and be like, 'It's OK to be that way.'

My creative is for the world.

I like to play different characters.

I have this other side of me that people didn't meet in 2NE1.

I want to break that typical Asian female stereotype. There's this standard where they're all calm. I want to break that.

I want to express my ideas through my music and on stage because I'm a musician.

There are always two sides to a person. CL is me, and so is Chaelin.

What is portrayed on stage and in my music videos is different from my everyday lifestyle. But I want to people to see me as CL on stage and in my music.

I feel like 'I Am The Best' or 'Can't Nobody' are very much 2NE1's style, if that's how you want to put it.

'I Love You,' was something different for our fans and for 2NE1.

When I perform or have work, I get my makeup done by an artist.

Working with Method Man was such an honor. I love his music even though I didn't grow up in his era.

N.Y. is definitely one of my favorites. Love the culture, people, attitude and music, art, and fashion.

I want to show who CL is on my first solo album.

Normally, people think of Asian women as timid, but I think I'm very strong.

We're 2NE1, and we're from Korea. We're this girl band with great music.

Jeremy Scott is a good friend, and we love his stuff.

I don't want a 'good' image.

I don't want to take too much responsibility, where I'm like, 'Oh, I'm representing Asia.'

I love being called Baddest Female.

Personally, I don't like defining myself. I don't want to be put in one category in any kind of way.

My dad didn't like staying in one place, so we moved around every year - to a new house, new town, new country.

I know from my own experience that anything is possible, that there's nothing you can't do.

You don't realize how useful a therapist is until you see yourself on e and discover you have more problems than you ever dreamed of.
