I don't want my album coming out with a 'G' rating. Nobody would buy it.

You're an island no matter what you do. I think it's very dangerous to use popularity as your identity in life. So you have to really know who you are inside, the core person, and follow what is true rather than follow what is hype.

Knowing what I know now and what I have been through, would I do it the same? I look at the alternative - a very simple life. It would have been nice to have a simple life.

I never smile unless I mean it.

I look at Justin Bieber and my heart breaks for him, because I know what he's going to go through. He knows it. Everybody knows it.

I go to bed late. My mind starts going at night - that's when those creative juices begin flowing.

I got fitter when I did 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.' I wore a loincloth - that's a lot of motivation!
