I really try to wake up with my music the same as I do with my life, and that is with no expectations. I just feel what I feel that day and follow it.

Right now, with terrorism and poverty and Wall Street and Social Security having problems, nudity should not be the issue.

I hate not giving the people what they want.

Like with acting, if you're charming or just good-looking, you might be able to get your foot in the door. But a lot of time with music, you actually have to kinda be able to sing.

Women and their bodies are beautiful. Men are always gonna want to follow them around.

My gift and my curse is that I really want to be loved. What drives me to make music is love - whether it's shallow or deep or whatever. I want to do things that make people love me.
