Generally, I like making my own mistakes and learning from them because that's what I think life is about.

Everyone likes to stereotype things or write them off as not that serious or "this is just a phase," especially when you're that young. The music was never a phase, but the wardrobe was certainly a phase, so I think that may have overshadowed the music in the beginning, for sure. I was so outrageous.

New York's home. It's everything I'd want it to be. It's the most inspiring city I've ever been to, and I haven't been everywhere in the world, but I've been to quite a few places.

Every now and again I want to go to the beach and be in the sun, but that's a very rare feeling, so I could live in London, definitely.

I'm pretty, but I'm not, like, a 'pretty girl.'

The music was always the thing that has been in our world.

Don't hate me for what tabloids write about me, because I guarantee it's a lie.
