I think more things are becoming socially acceptable. I think that just by having more media, whether that's TV or Internet, we're able to see more things.

Very few interviews are a conversation. It's usually a question and I have to answer for two minutes. By the end of the day, I kind of feel gross. It's like you go to dinner with a friend and then you get home and you're like: "Ugh, I dominated that conversation too much. I wish I let them talk more." That's how it feels for me every day I do press.

Surrounding myself with women of different backgrounds and on different paths and in different stages of their lives has become so valuable to me.

When what you do is play characters, every day, all day, I wasn't really interested in playing a pop star on the weekends. I wanted to be myself, and it slowly turned into not being me at all, so I just didn't really see the point. If the music actually happens, at some point, it will be because some underground following happened, or some little elves heard it and were leaking it.

One of the reasons I love making movies is because it's an opportunity to share with the world a different way of being or a different way of living or seeing the world. If it's something you've already seen before, if I have too many reference points for it, then it's not exciting for me to make.

Clothing totally changes my perception of how I feel about myself depending on what it is that I'm wearing.

Sometimes I laugh with my parents, and sometimes I yell at them, and both are therapeutic.
