One of the hardest things I've had to deal with in my career is keeping my material topical even though I only release albums every three or four years.

I'm an ugly girl, My face makes you hurl, Sad I have it, I should bag it. Acne everywhere, Unwanted facial hair. I'm a relation to Frankenstein's creation.

I have a long-standing history of respecting artists' wishes.

Right now I'm listening to a lot of Top 40 music, because THAT'S MY JOB.

I was a huge fan of 'Mad' magazine when I was 11, 12, 13 years old. I'd scour used bookstores trying to find back issues, and I'd wait at the newsstand for a new issue to come out. My life revolved around it.

I don't think there are any new media I'd like to cover.

I start with a comprehensive list of all the recent songs that have been big hits - and then I go down that list and see if I can come up with funny ideas for them. I can always come up with ideas, but not necessarily good ones!
