The Monster Ball is by nature a protest: A youth church experience to speak out and celebrate against all forms of discrimination + prejudice.

I never wanted to look pretty on stage and sing about something we've all heard about before.

I'm a single girl. I like to have a good time. I just sleep with the guys in the band all the time because it's easier.

I talk about myself in the third person all the time. I don't live my life in the way someone like you does. I live my life completely serving only my work and my fans.

An artist is the only thing I want to be. I only want my freedom and my creativity. It's all that I live for. I reject the idea that I have to take all the costumes and makeup off to be f - king authentic.

If you were to ask me what I want to do - I don't want to be a celebrity, I want to make a difference.

My talent matters more to me than the money does.
