Saint Heart doesn’t just walk the line between light and shadow—she owns both sides. A Comanche artist who pioneered the “tribal pop” sound, she is a self-described “unstoppable creative force” spanning music, film, and screenwriting. Whether she’s commanding a red carpet with effortless confidence or crafting cinematic nightmares as the self-anointed “Goddess of Gore,” her aesthetic is built on a foundation of fierce authenticity and cultural pride.
With nearly 300,000 followers watching her every move, Saint Heart rejects chasing trends in favor of setting them, blending high-octane talent with a dark, mythic allure. In this exclusive Q&A, we sit down with the multi-hyphenate to discuss the evolution of her confidence, how her heritage fuels her personal style, and why she’s no longer afraid of the things that go bump in the night.
Hello Saint Heart, welcome to Blackbird News! For readers meeting you for the first time, how would you introduce yourself in your own words?
I would describe myself as an unstoppable creative force.
You’re often described as blending dark allure with high-octane talent. How would you define the “Saint Heart” aesthetic?
Saint Heart is a little bit of everything. She’s a singer, a songwriter, an actress, a storyteller, and a screenwriter who isn’t afraid of the dark. I embrace it. I would call myself a contradiction, light and shadow existing at the same time.
Whether it’s a red carpet, a premiere, or a gala, you command attention. Is that confidence something you’ve always had, or did you grow into it?
Confidence comes from belief in yourself and experience. I’ve had a lot of experience on red carpets and in front of the camera. The more you step into those spaces, the stronger and more comfortable you become. Confidence grows with repetition, and with knowing exactly who you are.
Your “tribal pop” sound draws inspiration from your Comanche ancestry. How does your cultural heritage influence not just your music, but your personal style and identity?
Tribal pop has been a huge part of my life. I wanted to create something impactful, something different that would stand out in the music industry. I blended Native American cultural influence with pop music alongside incredible musicians to create something powerful and fun. It’s about honoring where I come from while making something the world can connect to.
You move between music, film, fashion, and horror with ease. Do you see yourself as an actress first, a musician first, or a storyteller above all?
I see myself as an artist, period. There isn’t one love over the other. Creativity has no borders. Once you realize what you have to offer, you understand the world lives inside you, and you just need the strength and confidence to bring it out.
Social media plays a big role in visibility today. With nearly 300K followers, how do you stay authentic while building a powerful public persona?
Authenticity is simply who I am. I don’t follow rules. I create my own. I don’t chase trends. I set them when I can. In a world where everyone is copying each other, the most powerful thing you can do is stand out. I try to be as real as possible through my fashion, my writing, and my voice. I have no fear and no filter, and sometimes that can be intense but if you can’t be yourself on your own platform, what’s the point? As a public figure, I know I have an impact, so I always try to put out a positive message. Above all else: undeniably you.
Horror and high fashion often share dramatic storytelling elements. What draws you to darker, more mythic themes?
As a child, I feared the dark. As I grew, I realized the best thing you can do is face what scares you. Now I understand that the only thing truly worth fearing is giving up, not trying your best. The darkness didn’t consume me; it cradled me and brought me into the light. My mother definitely influenced my love for horror. Instead of cartoons, I grew up watching Freddy Krueger and Chucky. They gave me nightmares at first, and now I write those nightmares. My goal is to make audiences feel something powerful. Fear is one of the most intense emotions we have.
When you’re not on set or at an event, what does your off-duty lifestyle look like?
When I’m off, I like to go to the park or sit by the ocean and meditate. It grounds me. Deep breathing centers me and helps me reset. Even when I’m resting, my mind is always creating always thinking about what’s next.
If you had to describe the next chapter of your life in three words, what would they be — and why?
Goddess of Gore.
Because I’m stepping fully into my power, creatively fearless, unapologetically bold, and ready to build worlds that make people feel something unforgettable.
