If Karen was my comfort blanket, Judy was the older sister who I looked up to. When I think of Judy Garland, I think of someone who was living her performances. I just wanted to get close to whatever she was feeling when she was singing a song, and take that on myself. I also have a similar vocal tone to her which I’ve felt is a weird, but special connection that I share with these women that I loved.
