I think opera music is very conservative, and Rock and Roll music is conservative as well, and that's why I'm trying to make a bridge between these two elements.

It was just as shocking for me to sing opera in a falsetto soprano in Germany.

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

Sometimes I sing very honestly, really as moving as possible.

My music is L-O-V-E because it's a gift, and you only give something when you feel it deeply.

A man without makeup is like a cake without icing.

I go on stage and people like what I look like; as soon as I'm outside I feel like I have to hide, because people laugh at me, because of the way I look. Now, I use this look, it works for me, I even exaggerate it. I used to hide my large forehead, but now I'm selling it.
