I like to be wild, and I like to do wild, crazy things. I need excitement. At all times. Normal is not my type.

I've lived in many things - boats, caravans, and buses. I've been homeless, I've had no money: everything. But I believe in magic, and having a vision. The tough times made me a warrior. I work hard.

I have a little gypsy palace here in New York. It's all mirrors, and I have my own garden. It's so secluded - the closest thing to a caravan I could find!

My background sets me apart. I've never been able to relate to many people. I've always been the outcast child.

You should hear what my parents wanted to call me. It was between Brown Rice, Neon Hitch and Z. Ziggurat Zanzibar Zandorf. I'm not joking. Imagine fitting that on my passport!

My dad brought me Michael Jackson and Madonna and said, "This is ALL you need to know!"

I was always a bit of a showgirl; it was in my blood. I never thought I would have a career as a singer, though.
