You get paid and you get venerated and worshipped for pretending to be somebody else.

I grew up on North American sports teams as well as English soccer clubs.

I much prefer being in the studio or on stage and staying out of the mainstream really.

When you look at men's fashion magazines, you see a lot of well-groomed guys in suits, but very rarely do you see a lot of guys in drop-crotch and hoods with high-tops. It's coming, though, because guys in suits and short hair are beginning to look like they're from another time.

Occasionally I like a really good pair of shoes. A pair of leather shoes from Gieves & Hawkes in England, Buckshot Brogue, they look really sick.

I celebrate the spirit of Christmas. It's the winter solstice celebration, rebirth and new possibilities.

I'm much more interested in Mike Tyson than I am in Morrissey.
