When I was very little, I was into Michael Jackson. At six or seven, it was Madonna, but she's not what she used to be. I've been into everything from Edith Piaf to Joe Strummer to the Velvet Underground to Suicide to A Tribe Called Quest to African music.
Music and fashion are a sign of the times and a reflection of what people want and need at this very day and age.
The first thing you do when you get off tour is let off some steam and, you know, have some type of big breakdown.
I always feel like I've been slightly misunderstood. As a woman, you get judged for appearances or things like that I don't really care about.
I'm a very melancholic kind of person. I don't know why; I think certain people are born a certain way.
I'm just not interested in getting judged or getting people to love me. Being seen and taking my photo and having to follow this schedule all the time, I don't enjoy it.
