“You can be a boy, a girl, whatever you want. I have a lot of man in me.”

I believe in individuality, that everybody is special, and it’s up to them to find that quality and let it live.

My mother was a champion high-jumper. My three brothers are basketball players. We’ve all been very athletic.

I don’t collaborate. You’re born alone, you die alone, you get on stage alone.

Whatever; bling always has something to hide.

If people think I’m angry, I don’t want to burst anybody’s bubble. I like sometimes for people to be afraid of me. But it’s not really anger; it’s discipline.

I like working until the morning, so I can see the day and then I like to go to sleep and then get up before sunset. But I love the energy of the morning.

My father would have been made a bishop much earlier than he was had it not been for me and my image.

I don’t like people who hide things.

Everyone has to make their own decisions. I still believe in that. You just have to be able to accept the consequences without complaining.

I don’t think ‘pop’ should mean that you had no talent.

It’s ridiculous for a woman to say that she’s not attracted to other women. That’s completely false.

I don’t know what I’m going to be doing in two years or even in two weeks. I have to live for today.

I was skinny as a rail and had high cheekbones and a very interesting face – or so I was told.

I would have rebelled against parental authority, no matter what. When I was 15, I started painting my face and making my own clothes.

You can’t expect your children to be perfect.

Even if I sing like a robot, it is still an emotional robot.
