When every day became a hangover and when you look at yourself in the mirror and go 'I don't like how you're coming across to people.' and when every day just started to feel the same. After the 50th shag, it doesn't mean so much anymore.

I'm tired of being around men all the time. I'm going to start a band called Skirt with three girls and I'll play the guitar and sing backing vocals in drag. I went window shopping when I was in New York, saw a lot of amazing dresses.

I believe very strongly that when it comes to desire, when it comes to attraction, that things are never black and white, things are very much shades of grey.

I had a great deal of arrogance and a great deal of bravado, but I think the bravado was brought on by a huge insecurity.

Good conversation turns me on. A connection between two people, a mental one first.

Placebo is music for outsiders, by outsiders and our gigs are like conventions of outcasts, which is cool.

A lot of what has pushed me forward is desire, and I have expressed that in my songwriting - perhaps because it's safer!
