From the start, I've always admired Eminem's thinking. That's the reason I wanted to appear on the Grammys with him when I was asked. Eminem has the balls to say what he feels and to make offensive things funny. That's very necessary today in America, with people being muzzled and irony becoming a lost art. Artists like Eminem who use their free speech to get a point across are vitally important. There just aren't many people in the world with balls that big and talent that awesome.
If I was to say what I am, I'd be a Labour man. I like Tony Blair a lot, I think he's a good man. And in America I'd definitely be a Democrat; I'd never be a Republican.

It'll be a very small family affair, and then in the evening there'll be a soiree somewhere.
We're very lucky to live in Britain. I cannot think of a more tolerant place to live.
Everything I thought I'd hate about having children - the crying, the screaming - nothing fazes me. I love it all, and it's relaxed me.
I've played in Biloxi (Miss.) many times. I'm just glad we can do a little something for those people's lives that will never be the same again for many, many years. God bless them.
