I'm okay with or without chart success, says Madison Beer
Madison Beer insists that she's philosophical about chart success.
Madison Beer doesn't worry about chart success.
The 26-year-old pop star released her debut album, Life Support, back in 2021, and Madison has developed a philosophical attitude towards chart success over recent years.
She told Who What Wear: "I've kind of come to a point where I'm like, 'I'm okay with or without it. I'm proud of the music with or without it.'"
Madison explained that she approaches her work with an open mind, meaning that her projects often evolve over time.
The singer - who released her latest album, Locket, in January - said: "To me, it's the music first always, and then everything else can fall into place after.
"I'm really bad at creating something beforehand and sticking to it because then it starts developing, and you're like, 'This is not at all what I thought it was gonna be.' So I don't even do that anymore. I just go in, and I let it take shape.
"At the start, I had no idea, and then once it started taking form, I could really see the aesthetic, and I could see the colours, and I could see everything just start to come to life in this cool way. But that happens when the music develops."
Madison previously insisted that she's comfortable with her relative lack of chart success.
The brunette beauty actually considers her music career to be a success, despite her lack of accolades.
Madison explained to the Observer newspaper: "It was definitely hard for years to detach from that ideology, but I feel so much better off now that that’s not something I drive myself crazy over.
"I don’t want to diss myself here, but I haven’t had No 1s, I haven’t had gigantic songs – actually, that’s not true, I think I have had gigantic songs, but [not] to people’s criteria. I’m like: if I can still sell out a tour and perform for crowds and enjoy it, then clearly I’m OK."
