You should make an effort on stage because it's a performance. The stage should be glittery and camp, but I don't go down the shops in full stage gear.

I don't think anyone doubts my motives, really. I do what I do and it's not very complicated. Of course, you might hate the music that I make, but I don't think people feel threatened by me just getting on with what I'm up to.

I'm all for consumer rights. I get very aggravated if I don't get a good service.

You learn that, when your children are all right, everything is right in the world.

I'm a sucker for sad disco pop.
