I'm just completely obsessed with Die Antwoord.
Fame made me develop a panic disorder.
I feel like I've always had gay fans, I don't think my dating a woman has changed my demographic, but it certainly changed the way I feel about politics.
I'm a fan of the Strokes, so my big fantasy was that one day I would get to sing with them.
I don't need to be rich anymore; I don't need to be a millionaire.
I don't know anything about the history of music.
I love visual gags and gimmicks; I love them.
I guess I felt straight when I was allowed to get married. Now I feel queerer because I'm not. It's the only thing that's changed. I wouldn't measure it in icon status or how much my demographic has changed, but in the rage I feel, and being not equal.
Like when I'm singing live I can't hear myself. I'm just listening to the rest of the band. To listen to my voice, it doesn't even feel like it's me.
Being hunted, paparazzi-style , doesn't appeal to me.
People call me for the ballads. Apparently that's where I've been pigeonholed. But it's really interesting and really fun. It's my favourite part of the job, writing.
I liked when I was naive and I thought it was just about making good music.
There are probably five songs in the world that I get excited about when I hear them on the radio.
There's time limits on how long people's attention spans will work. There's six weeks in each territory that you're really famous, then you, thank god, disappear again.
