Dear Kanye West. It is YOU who is so busy disrespecting artistry. You disrespect your own remarkable talents and more importantly you disrespect the talent, hard work and tenacity of all artists when you go so rudely and savagely after such an accomplished and humble artist like BECK.

You don't really hear a female perspective on the radio, because so many of the songs are being written by men.

I am not a sexy woman, I'm not beautiful, I'm not a sex kitten, I don't flirt with people, yet I've been tagged more of sex symbol than women who truly are and I that's solely because I don't reveal too much: people are curious.

A lot of people these days are not music lovers - they just want to be famous which is a very different thing to what I grew up believing in.

What makes a woman stylish is what she has to say and how she chooses to live her life.

I would say I'm pretty well at ease with my sexuality, but I'm an individual before I am a female.

Humans all want to beat the clock but nobody ever does.
