I still believe in love, most definitely. I'm just going to let that take the lead.

I never live in the present. I'd do interviews and people will say, "Isn't this great?" or "Can you believe?" And I would react, like, "No, I can't believe it because I'm not living in this moment."

People don't want just vanilla. They want 31 flavors. I couldn't do what Rihanna does. I couldn't do what Gaga does. They can't do what I do.

I believe in a lot of astrology. I believe in aliens. I look up into the stars and I imagine: How self-important are we to think that we are the only life-form?

I consider myself a believer in something much bigger than myself, thank God.

Fame is, I think, just a disgusting by-product of what I do.

I'm competitive with myself, and that goes hand in hand with how I present myself. I'm not only trying to put one foot in front of the other, I'm trying to put my best foot forward.
