The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself.

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

I went to see 'Phantom of the Opera' with my grandma and my mom when I was very little. The stage, the voice, the music?... Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has been a massive inspiration to me for some time - the storytelling, that deliciously somber undertone in his music.

I'm encouraging you to know what you're worth. And know that no matter who has more money in class, who has more stuff, who has a country house - nobody is worth more than anybody else.

I'm not a feminist. I hail men, I love men. I celebrate American male culture, and beer, and bars and muscle cars.

I like black because it is a vacant space.

People want to tear me down, they were going to knife me anyway.
