I feel like gender lines are changing. A couple of years ago, it wasn't nearly as OK for guys to like girly-sounding music. But all of a sudden a lot of my guys friends who would like have been really disdainful of female singers are way more accepting.

I don't even wear shoes with heels because I hate making a noise when I walk and people looking at me.

If you look at the way people behave at shows, icons are now musicians; they are the people that we worship.

Especially with music, people want confidence.

From an early age I knew I would be unhappy if I wasn't doing something creative.

I have an intense desire to constantly make music, and I don't feel that way about anything else.

I'm just very obsessed with Japanese stuff in general.
