Elvis Presley is my spiritual father, and as you may know Maria Callas is my spiritual mother.

I come as the wicked witch from the Barock era.

I am singing in an operatic voice for the public, to bring something more to Rock and Roll. Because in a Rock and Roll performance, the singer talks to the public whereas in Opera the singer only talks to a character, inside a story. The public sees this as a picture, I want to transport this picture into the room where the public is.

People should allow me to be many things, really give me the room to put things in another dimension.

I'm from Planet Nomi where I wear black lipstick so you can see my lips and what I am doing with them.

I did every thing, even dirty jobs like dishwashing or delivery boy for a grocer.

People do accuse me of being just decorative or an escapist - well I am. That's what I do. I am other things as well. I transcend the song and give it a different meaning.
