Even though I really admire what Beyonce does, and she's probably got one of the best live shows in the world - honestly! - that's so not my style.

Fashion can be a really powerful tool, but it's also a place where you can be totally humiliated and have your power taken from you.

The way that you present yourself visually totally dictates your audience and everything that anyone thinks about you.

When an artist, or whomever, moves from their scene to the bigger pond, it starts getting crazy, because all of a sudden people don't respect you, and you have to start being a lot more aggressive than you would normally be.

Success, for me, is a song that can deliver shivers.

I think a lot of music that's really innovative is not even considered because it was made by people who had a sexual image. And people assume that it's a commodified thing, so it can't be "indie."

Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird.
