As a singer, I've always said, "Yes, I smoke weed," when I'm asked. Of course I say yes, because why wouldn't I smoke weed? There are many reasons not to, though not that many compared to the reasons to do it. I've always been open about it ... but people go, "Hippie! No, not listening to you," and I think that's a bloody shame.

The only country that hasn't liked my music is my own.

Madonna's not the best singer in the world, but she was awesome with her entertainment and all of her shock tactics and stuff and that's where it began. She then inspired all sorts of other girls to do that. But I don't know, I just think music's kind of important too. So you've gotta know where that line is especially when you are good at singing.

Life is good. Or at least, it's always interesting.

It would just be nice if everybody would be nice.

It's sad that people listen to music and decide how the singer should look.

It's ok to be sassy, but I'll never be trashy, it's ok to be nasty, but you got to keep it classy now
