"I think life is the most important thing and you have to live that first and then you're art comes second."
"I was born in Las Vegas and my babysitter was a female Elvis Presley impersonator. My first memory is being in her arms and she was fully dressed up as Elvis. She was an avid thrift-shopper so I started going to thrift shops when I was very young. You could put something together for no money at all."
"I think you kind of lose the human aspect when you make things too perfect."
"It's amazing how quickly things start to change when you haven't slept. Your memory goes. Physically, you don't feel well. Emotionally, you're all over the place - you know, if you miss one night of sleep. You can only imagine five nights of not sleeping. I was in an alternate state of reality."
"As hard as I try to sound tough and dark, I still sound cute."
