Karen O—yes THE Karen O, Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman, consummate rockstar, songwriting genius, fashion icon, eternal hairspiration—answered some questions for us about what to do with your broken heart and your cheating heart and your flitter-fluttering stage-frightened heart. We learned that you can trust her with every kind of your heart.

Her new solo album, Crush Songs, comes out TODAY. Here is what she told us about it: “This music on this record is about me finding my way through love and loss and love again.” Here is what she told us about you:

Part One: Heartbreak, Stage Fright.


Part Two: Cheating.
