I think performance art comes from a simple place of wanting to express things beyond just sound.

I don't think of myself as particularly cursed or blessed. I think I got dealt a set of cards, and I'm playing with them, sometimes in heels, sometimes in combat boots.

I think performance art comes from a simple place of wanting to express things beyond just sound.

I had a real come-to-Jesus a couple of years ago when I started to see the direct line between feminism and everything else - feminism and climate change, feminism and poverty, feminism and hunger - and it was almost like I was born again and started walking down the street and was like, "Oh, my God, there are women everywhere! They're just everywhere you look. There's women all over the place!"

I had very literal parents and I wanted to survive with metaphor and art, and there was a real sense of shame around it.

I make the music that I want to make and make the show that I want to make. If you like it, you come. If you don't like it, you don't have to.

The world needs actual excitement and emotion more than it needs cool people.
