BETH DITTOWhy wear pants when you can wear a muumuu?
BETH DITTOHigh school wasn’t so bad though because, by then, I had worked out that there were far more nerdy kids and poor kids than there were rich, popular kids, so, at the very least, we had them outnumbered.
BETH DITTOA weird thing about Gossip that I’ve always said: “If I weren’t in this band, I would never listen to it.” But I would go see it. It’s a band you would go see that you don’t necessarily listen to.
BETH DITTOEven if you’re only wearing trainers and a vest, eyeliner will instantly transform you. People always look put-together when their make-up’s on and their eyes are popping – just ask Amy Winehouse!

BETH DITTOI knew that if I wanted to stop being a pushover I had to get comfortable with small rejections myself. That took some work, but because of it I can now say no to other people with a clear conscience.
BETH DITTOInstagram is a Roman arena of insults. Everyone is a lion, but it is fun.
BETH DITTOI’m like cheddar: Yes, other cheeses are more ooh la la, but I’m strong, mature, and oh so delicious.
BETH DITTOWhen you get a certain amount of media attention, I think people are like, “Where’s your other album?”
BETH DITTOI hate to do what I’m told, that’s why I’m not good at 9-to-5s.
BETH DITTOWhen I was a kid Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O’Donnell were mere blips on the gaydar; and they were both still in the closet.
