I'm just not a private person. It's not like I do things because I want things to be public; it's just that's my way of expressing myself, and I happen to be very famous.

All of my songs are about me and my experiences. They're very literal.

I like to be able to get up and go and buy a pint of milk without bumping into 20 people I know.

I think people just probably don't want people to think that they're vain.

People in this day and age are still under the illusion that every woman who is successful must be being controlled by a man... I'm the boss.

We're in the age of the selfie. It's just encouraging vanity. It's not even representative of anything except how you want people to perceive you. Think of when people are partying and having fun. They're like, "Hey, look at us!" You're obviously not having that much fun because otherwise you wouldn't be stopping to document it. It's stupid.

I never go out to be photographed, never. I go to events because they're fun.
