Now, in music, it seems more like the popular crowd suppresses anyone who is different.

That's exactly what's exciting for me - the idea of infiltrating the male structure and affecting change from within.

No. You know what really bugs me about my videos? When they can't figure out what to do, they just have me change clothes five times.

It was a source of shame for my family that I was in rock and roll, which is so blue-collar. It just isn't done. And I felt it, too.

I don't like being approached by people who look at me too intensely, who needed something from me that I didn't have. I don't represent anything.

I don't think anything I do in life is planned. Sometimes I regret that and I feel like I try to take ahold of the wheel, but I'm also always super excited when things pop up spontaneously and when I'm a little bit out of my depth. I just find that that thrills me.

I've lost touch with a lot of that boutique-type music just because of my age, and raising my son and the multiple jobs I have at this point.
