I don't want to be Christina Aguilera. I want to be Amy Lee, rock queen - not sex queen.

I've gotten to where my hair is like my onstage prop; I need to hide behind it and throw it around - it's my slo-mo effect.

Every time a cool rock chick or actress seems to respect themselves as a strong woman, I'm like, 'Yeah!' And I love them, and they're my girls. And then they start to go downhill and people aren't paying attention anymore. So they start stripping their clothes off, because that's all they have left. I swear to everything I've ever known, I will never do that

When I was in high school, I listened to a lot of death metal bands.

I don't want to be Christina Aguilera. I want to be Amy Lee, rock queen - not sex queen.

People told me I can't dress like a fairy. I say, I'm in a rock band and I cand do whatever the hell I want!

When you're miserable, you don't want anyone around you to be happy.
