I try to show the freedom to be yourself, unapologetically and irreverently.

Sometimes I have parties at my house in Nashville and it's clothing-optional, and we just body-paint each other and run around, and I have a giant bed. I'm very much in touch with that side of myself.

The people who come to my shows have dollar signs drawn all over them. They have blue lipstick. I call them my animals because they just go totally mental.

I think people can stand to take themselves just a little less seriously. I'm fighting the war against pretension.

A friend of mine has a big farm in the desert, and she picks up feathers and roadkill for me, then makes it into clothes. I think it's cool to wear roadkill. If I died and somebody wanted to wear my teeth around their neck to VMAs, I'd feel honored.

I love country music, blues, and punk, and one day I might make those kinds of records.

Somebody sent me their tooth, which I now wear as an earring. It's a molar, I think. I love it when people send me body parts.
