I don't know why it surprises people that I surprise them.

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.

I wear clothes that most people in the Midwest would probably deem inappropriate at my age. And I rock a bikini all summer long. I know that it's not normal, but I just don't care. I live once.

Madonna is the speedboat, and the rest of us are just the Go-Gos on water skis.

When I was young, I used to need other people's albums and I got very involved with their music and it meant a lot to me.

There's even more stuff that I'd like to release, but I'm scared to, that's really, um, nerdy... not nerdy in a good way. Like, silly.

The other day I was reading a blog and I linked over to Streisand's Web site, and it was amazing politically. She's so insightful and incisive. And she also says whatever she wants.
