Movie stars are supposed to be healthy. They're kept happy and nutritionally together.
You know, if Nicole Kidman was a rock star, she'd be alot more professional than me, I'm sorry.
Being a rock star is like being a cult leader - you really have to be in your own religion.
What makes the most money for this business? Dead rock stars.
I'm not a woman. I'm a force of nature.
I might lie a lot but never in my lyrics.
We went through ten years of the Limp Bizkit thing, and I didn't know what to do.
The Kurt thing has burdened me so much.
I'm not going to hurt anybody other than that dick who keeps writing songs about me.
The only thing that's really riled me up in the last ten years has been the White Stripes. That's the one band that's gotten me competitive, and that's good.
Mainstream success is important - that's probably anathema to an indie publication like Pitchfork, but it's what I believe having experienced it personally.
I've discreetly dated a lot of people - I once dated a billionaire, mostly because it was fun to say, "I'm dating a billionaire," but we did not have the same taste in music, and it was doomed.
I've been screwed by as many women as I have by men, in terms of lawyers. But lawyers don't count. If you take lawyers out of the equation, you have a more fair playing field. There is a sisterhood.
I think commercial success is really important. It means there are more people listening, and you're affecting the zeitgeist more. If only a hundred people know you exist, it's harder to get your message across.
