In a sense I portray myself in a very androgynous way, and I love androgyny.

People that are obsessed with hating you, feel flattered. Their whole lives revolve around you.

I guess you could say I devoted myself so strongly to my music that for awhile I forgot about my family. But I only get one set of parents, and I think I forgot about that for a little while.

In my work and what I do, I am Queen of the Universe every day!

I actually don't want a throne at all, because I don't view myself as a queen; I view myself as one of my fans.

I don't consider my own clothing to be outrageous. The truth is that people just don't have the same references that I do. To me it's very beautiful and it's art, and to them it's outrageous and crazy.

I think what made it difficult for people to get, and still makes it difficult for people to get, is the theatrical nature of the work and the fact that, my music doesn't exist without the performance-art element.
