Jordin Sparks Opens Up About New Boyfriend Sage the Gemini: I’m not hurting anymore.

She also tells Billboard that emotionally, she’s in a much better space:

When it comes to the heartbreak and whatever happened in my past, at the time I didn’t talk about it because I was still hurting. Now? I’m not hurting anymore. I don’t live there, I don’t live there in the past. I’m past it.

In an interview with Madame Noire, Sparks explains why she decided to open up about her new relationship:

Well, I was always open with my relationships. My life has pretty much been an open book so I’m not going to change now. That’s just how I’ve always been, but in terms of how we’re presenting it, I feel like it was something where we both had to be comfortable. We both talked about it like, “Are we comfortable with this? Do we want to do this?” If there’s anything that’s precious to you, especially if you’re in the public eye and you decide to put it out there, there’s always a chance that someone is going to try to rip it apart. They’re going to try to dissect it and turn it into something that it’s not. For us, we just talked about it and said “Are we okay?” Because to me, they’re just comments. I’m out here working. I’m not worried about this comment or whatever. So for both of us, we had the discussion and we both felt comfortable. That’s just how I’ve always been and how I’ll continue to be.

“Freeze the moment, it’s never been better…”
