To "Someone" —

I am not mad at the ignorant gesture made about me by "someone" in Ukraine "government". I actually feel sad that not only are their facts completely wrong, but they are wasting so much time and energy focusing on things that do not matter when they can clearly be attending to other more serious matters.

1. I did NOT ask to live in Crime or for citizenship there. Crimea actually asked me...and I declined. It's too sensitive of a matter right now.

2. I have many many friends and family in Ukraine, and Russia. I have respect and love for them both.

3. We are a MUSICAL experience. Not a political campaign. Maybe that is news to some of you. Make a note of it. But maybe I'll take up politics once the aliens from space find earth.

4. I have had SO many amazing times in Ukraine and will always cherish this. I love the people of Ukraine and the people I have had the chance to meet in person and at our concerts. It's a beautiful country.

5. The world is in a scary place right now. There are so many problems. But we shouldn't feed into more problems. We should help fix the mess that is already there. We are humans and we all have ONE earth to share. We should ALL be ONE and let the failing politics, etc be a sign to evolve past our own ignorance.

6. I am grateful to have the opportunity of seeing so many countries and meeting so many people all over the world. It is my pleasure to remind you that the people of Ukraine are just as amazing as everyone else.

7. Happy Holidays. Let's all do wonderful things for those who need our help. And most importantly, make YOUR moment the best it can be because YOU deserve it. Life is too short to dwell on negativity.

I wish all people and countries in disagreement with one another to realize that what we truly need is to all work together to save the human species. We need each other. We do not need any more conflict.

Thank you, "someone" in Ukraine, for giving me this moment to tell you all how much I love you.
