The gorgeous Elle Varner graces the cover of SFPL’s (http://stuffflypeoplelike.com/) premiere digital issue. The songstress dishes on Michelle Obama endorsing her, her dream collaboration and the current state of R&B. Check out excerpts from her interview and watch my exclusive interview with Elle as she opens up about her weight loss and why it’s important for women to feel sexy and confident.

On Michelle Obama singing her praises
I could not believe it….I thought at first it was just a rumor but then I watched and it was definitely real. I was shocked but also very proud that the White House approves my music for their precious daughters to listen to…. That I made an album that simply told my story, and that it could be appreciated by both a 14 year old girl and that girl’s Mother….I was chilling at home when a friend called me and I was screaming lol.

On Her Dream Collaboration
My dream collaboration at the moment would have to be with Frank Ocean or Luke James… I want to make a classic R&B collab like Marvin and Tammi Terrell. On a hip hop note, Drake on a song would be hot too!

On the current state of R&B
I think Rhythm and Blues is missing the “Blues.” That emotional hits-you-in-your-chest feeling that it was built on. The rhythms are
there but the quality and content just aren’t what they used to be. Luckily there are a lot of artists right now not only making great R&B, but getting some mainstream shine as well. I plan to take my music to a worldwide level so R&B isn’t the one trying to squeeze into the picture but actually standing proud in the center of the photo.

Elle Varner is definitely one of the most talented singers in the game! Make sure you cop her #classic album ‘Perfectly Imperfect’ NOW!
