I don't dress any particular way to impress anyone or market myself for my music. It's actually who I am.

You define beauty for yourself, society doesn’t define your beauty. Your spirit and your faith defines your beauty.

just remember: i love you, and love yourselves. 'cause, little monsters, you were born that way baby.

The fashion I've acquired over the years is so sacred to me - from costumes to couture, high fashion to punk wear I've collected from my secret international hot spots. I keep everything in an enormous archive in Hollywood. The clothes are on mannequins, also on hangers and in boxes with a photo of each piece, and there's a Web site where I can go to look through everything. It's too big - I could never sort through it myself! But these garments tell the stories of my life.

In case you're wondering whether I lip synch, the answer is no... people think so because I sound so good.

You must always remember, the most important fashion accessory is the condom.

I try to not focus on what people expect from me.
