I never wanted to look pretty on stage and sing about something we've all heard about before.
I think what it really is, is that I date creative people. And I think that what intimidates them is not my purse; it's my mind.
There really is no difference between the bully and the victim.
I don't see myself in terms of artifice. I see myself as a real person who chooses to live my life in an open way - artistically.
So there's nothing more provocative than taking a genre that everybody who's cool hates - and then making it cool.
I just am committed wholeheartedly to theatre with no intermission.
I like pushing boundaries.
It's hard knowing who to trust with your personal life. When you cry in your room at night, you don't always know who to call. So I am very close to my family.
I want my fans to love themselves. It's almost like I want to hypnotize them so when they hear my music they love themselves instantly.
I don't see myself as ever being like anybody else.
I don't like celebrities; I don't hang out with them; I don't relate to that life.
I consider myself to have one of the greatest voices in the industry.
I am so excited to extend myself behind the scenes as a designer and to - as my father puts it - finally have a real job.
How I love David Bowie.
