I collect clothes - they keep building and building. I buy them instead of having them washed.
Dreams, they're what sets us apart from being mere a brain and a body.
I kind of imagine myself at eighty, a cat lady.
Fame can be just so annoying because people are so critical of you. You can't just say 'hi'. You say hi and people whisper 'Man, did you see the way she said Hi. What an attitude.'
All that evilness is always just from pain and fear, and that's what I've come to understand. I've come to understand people now. Before, I would blame them for treating me in such a naïve way. I don't hate evil, vicious people anymore.
The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid.
Success is a nice by-product but what I really want is work.
As early as when I was five or six I wanted to perform.
I knew I could live no other way, that the one thing I wanted was to act and do it well.
[There's] this idea of "I want to take care of myself," but at the same time I want to be brave, daring, and expressive.
I'm less of a straight-up, traditional vocalist.
Music is kind of my everything.
I like people like Tina Turner, Chrissie Hynde, Debbie Harry, and Stevie Nicks; you only hear that person in their voice, they sound like nobody else.
My main objective was finding my individuality as a vocalist.
