I always tell my fans that are closest to me, if it's not coming from my mouth, my website, or my appointed person, then it's generally not true. Or it's an exaggeration.

I think some people will die on the stage, and I'm not so sure I want to do that. Like, I want to have kids! I'm totally fine with saying that. I think some people are scared because they're worried it's going to ruin their career, but I want to live a full life.

You look at someone like Beyoncé singing Single Ladies, when we all know she's married. Some of it is just for entertainment.

I am a gay activist and I say that proudly. I voted no on Prop 8.

Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke.

My style icons were Gwen Stefani, when she was in No Doubt, and then Shirley Manson in Garbage.

I still want to make a pop record. I want to make a more sonically current pop record. I maybe want to make people move a little bit more.
