Glamour Magazine Interview

“I hate drama. But at the same time, nothing bothers me more than when life’s perfect. And that’s the sick part.

I just love a challenge, whether it’s a relationship, my career, clothing…”

“Getting dressed, I want to pick the most bizarre pair of shorts so I can figure out how to make it look right,

or work an outfit that will make people go, “What the hell is she wearing?”

“I think honesty is the ultimate liberation in life. People want to shy away from the truth and keep sweeping it under the rug.

But after a while, you pick up the rug and there’s just way too much dirt, so you might as well just be up front about it.”

“In the beginning of my career, it was really strict for me. I couldn’t wear pink or red lipstick; it was just bizarre.

We had a young fan base, and they were trying to keep me fresh. But I just really wanted to be myself. I wanted to be sassy, the attitude, all these things that I am.”

“I want to set the right example and, at the same time, live my life….I feel like pop stars can’t be rock stars anymore because

they have to be role models, and it takes the fun out of it for us, because we just want to have fun with art.”

“I play a very dominant role in my life, in every aspect of it. And I like to feel like a lady still, at some point.

I feel like that’s the time when a guy really gets to be a man, and I get to be a woman. And if I’m being a man in the bedroom too, there’s nothing really in it for me.”

“There’s a pack. It’s me, Gaga, Katy Perry, Beyoncé…who else? Ke$ha, for sure. Women are definitely dominating music right now,

and that’s because we are competitive beings. I feel like music hasn’t been this exciting in a while.”

“All my friends are guys, to be completely honest. But when I met her, it was such a breath of fresh air. I just couldn’t believe this chick had

no edit button…. Katy and Lady Gaga came out of the gate exactly the way they think, the way they wanna dress, the way they wanna speak.”
