Professionally, I don’t necessarily have to adhere to a certain dress code. However, I think that comfort is crucial. Otherwise, you won’t be able to have fun and express yourself.

The truth is, that I feel alone most of the time. I stopped believing in happiness, but I know that music makes me feel good.

I will wear the same thing for three years straight unless somebody, like, forces me not to. It's like, hey, I got this Gucci sweater.

Approval isn’t necessary. It’s nice when you get it, but it’s not going to stop us from being who we are. I mean, if I’d have listened to approval, I’d never have made it one day onstage. But to be criticized, if there’s validity, as upset as you are, you can learn from it.

I thought it would be a great opportunity to work with someone that I really like and really respect as an artist [like Alessandro Michele].

You know you’re really famous when there’s rumors about you being gay.

No, I don’t wear contacts, and contrary to what some people have said, I do not have a glass eye.
