I've never been to a Hollywood party, although I imagine that it might be fun.

I can only cook brown rice and vegetables, so I don't get too many people coming over for dinner parties or anything.

I have no sense of patriotism, but I do have a sense of community.

I was a single mom with two kids. What else was I going to do? It was either be in a band or be a waitress.

I don't like to think that I'm on a treadmill of album, tour, promotion and all that.

The Clash were innovative, radical and helped drive a change in music that was ground-breaking. In comparison to some of the music today they sounded like they meant it. I still listen to their music today to remind myself what music made with commitment sounds like.

Everyone has their set of problems and I'm certainly not going to sensationalize mine or try to evoke pity or sympathy out of people because I don't think they warrant that sort of thing. That's my private karma that I have to work out.
