It’s very strange that people would consider me a fashion muse but it’s also flattering. I try to just be myself, and wear what’s comfortable and makes me feel good.

I always get pissed that I can’t make my voice sound like someone from the 50s who had a very girly, innocent voice, like Leslie Gore.

I think what we do is really, at times, a complicated thing. But at the end of the day it’s so important that we make art for people that need to escape reality for a second. That’s what music has always been for me. It’s been a way to tap out of what’s going on in my personal life.
