I have this idea that you can use glamour and still have it represent something that matters.

I'm part of what I consider the entertainment industry. For my photos to be entertaining, they have to be provocative and new.

I am not God. But I can only do my role here on this planet. The role I feel I was given since I was a kid was to be making art and I only wanted to give and I never let money be my God.

Prostitutes go to heaven. It's their clients that go to hell.

With mania, is it dangerous to ride that euphoric feeling. You feel very animated and creative; I would fill journals with drawings. It feels good and you want it to last, but it can lead to being delusional. The delusions can be as real as you thinking you can fly.

In the fashion world, I was always an outsider, but I made people look good, so I had a career.

My biggest advice would be to take the pictures you want to take. Don’t think about the marketplace, what sells or what an editor might say. And don’t think about style. It’s all bullshit and surface stuff. Style happens.
