I'm always on the market for a new friend, period. As your success continues to grow, you start to see who your real friends are. But I'm always looking for wonderful people to have in my life that have no agenda and aren't fake friends.

The whole point of what I do - the monster ball, the music, the performance art aspect of it, I wanna create a space for my fans where they can feel free and they can celebrate because I didn't fit in in high school and I felt like a freak, so I like to create this atmosphere for my fans where they feel like they have a freak in me to hang out with and they don't feel alone.

I don't want to make niche-oriented music.

My apartment is my stage, and my bedroom is my stage - they're just not stages you're allowed to see.

I’m not going to start churning out what you expect. If you want me to be a manufactured act, you can f*** off.

cause it's a hard life, with love in the world. and i'm a hard girl, loving me is like chewing on pearls.

I don't want to be remembered as anything but brave. The only good intention to make money is to help others. I want to be Oprah. I want to be Melinda Gates. If I ever sell products other than my talents, then it will be to give more to others.
