She later DELETED the tweet, raising eyebrows among many — especially the conspiracy theorists who questioned the occult symbolism in her music video.

What really struck a chord with us though was a radio interview she did, claiming she stood behind each and every lyric of the 'live in the moment' anthem.

But now she's trying to clarify things with a new message she posted on her website:
