I don't want to live in real life. It's too harsh, too brutal.

I love natural beauty, and I think it's your best look, but I think makeup as an artist is so transformative.

I think celebrity culture and sexuality in pop music is really important, but I want there to be an alternative for people.

Fake it, fake your confidence until it's real. I think it's a good way to live most of your life.
