I work because I think that I wouldn't feel good about myself unless I was contributing.
I absolutely refuse to bare midriff.
I've been through so much in my life. I've seen so much. I know how fast things can change. I know someone can be here one minute and gone the next.
I think having kids just makes you want to do things to help people. You have children, and you see how fragile and innocent and helpless they are when they first start out. If they are going to be a victim of whatever they are surrounded by, I just do everything I can to try to make whatever change I can.
I'm just not interested in selling out to get on the charts and make people happy
I did go through a Goth thing, but that was a long time ago. I just like artists that shake it up, that piss people off or make people think or rattle the cage somehow.
A couple of months ago I hauled my white ass on stage alongside Chaka Khan and Stevie Wonder for Divas Las Vegas, singing in front of a celebrity audience. If I can hold my own there, I can hold my own at Top of the Pops, trust me.
The period of time just before you awaken is the time I have my most creative thoughts and discover the best solutions.
I saw a Velveeta commercial, and it was playing, I think, 'Burning Love.' [Jackson] had approved it-that's something we can't control. He can do whatever he wants with the songs he owns to make money, and that got under my skin.
Something happens to people around fame and power and money - it can bring out the worst and best in people; it's a monster you have to tame.
I have, in the past, been attracted to really strong and dominant men. But on the other side, I have been attracted to very androgynous men. I don't typically fall for your average jock. I just like people that are a little atypical.
I want to pave my own path artistically.
I knew that because of who I am, and the situation I'm in, that I'd attract more critics than your average person, and that was a little intimidating, but I wanted to get out there and pay my dues.
I'll say it loud and say it proud. I'm completely insane.
