I've been DJing a little bit, so you get used to the fact that music sounds brilliant when it's loud.

Some people are really good at packaging themselves, but that's not really me.

Yeah, I'm not really a morning person.

I'm a sucker for sad disco pop.

A lot of what inspired many musicians is celebrating differences, and people relate to that - more people feel like the unpopular, freaky one than the one in the in-crowd.

I like the influence of the macabre, but I don't believe in ghosts.

Some people can get away with being very sexy to men and not looking like a complete cow, but I didn't think I was in a position where people knew me well enough

I used to be hung up on my figure, but it's a waste of time. I don't believe in diets. Have four pints one night, be healthy the next.

Trust your instincts: they tend to see you right. By listening to them, at least you can sleep at night.

Not all my shoes are designer. In terms of clothes, everything is on the same level for me. If I like it, it doesn't matter if it cost £200 or £2. I'm attracted to things rather than labels.

When I first started out, I got criticism for the way I looked. I think, now, it's a good thing because, why would you want to look like everyone else?

Accentuated plainness and accentuated vice ought to bring about harmony. Beauty lies in harmony, in style, whether it be the harmony of ugliness or beauty, vice or virtue.

Make generosity part of your growth strategy.

Civilization can never be sustainable.

The difference between good and great is just a little extra effort.

The Internet is showing us what it thinks we want to see, but not necessarily what we need to see.

Balance is compromise. Of the muscles.

I like roses, ones with sharp thorns. Pretty to look at but hurts to touch, that's like me.

I just love variety. I love being able to do different things. Do period pieces and sci-fi. I love being able to move between genres and be flexible.

Don't look for an unshakable rock to stand on; there ain't any! Rather, learn how to stand still on a shaking rock!

And financial problems are exactly the same thing. You're humiliated. You're ashamed. You're embarrassed about telling anyone that you are suffering financial difficulties.
