Pete Burns Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Pete Burns:

If people don't think I can fall into what the norm is, that's their problem and not mine. I'm not the norm; I'm not deluded.

I have regular peels and Botox. It's something I'll always do. People redecorate their homes every few years, and I see this as no different. Changing my face is like buying a new sofa.

Pete Burns

What I'm trying to achieve with my surgery is my own personal satisfaction. It's narcissism.

Pete Burns

I'm not interested in gigs unless I really want to do them. I walked away from music in 1997, and then there was a greatest hits in 2002. Thank God, it didn't do too well because the record company wouldn't promote it.

Pete Burns

What a lot of people don't realise about me is that I have no idea what's going on in the media. I don't pay any attention to it, as I consider it mind pollution. The last time I touched a computer was in 2001, and my phone is too old to use the Internet. I just don't enter into it at all on any level.

Pete Burns

It's not a matter of vanity; it's a matter of sanity. I'll never look forever young, but I'll look as best as I possibly can; I'll look surreal.

If people don't think I can fall into what the norm is, that's their problem and not mine. I'm not the norm; I'm not deluded.

Pete Burns

I never wanted credit for being a wonderful person or a great human being or looking peculiar. I just wanted credit for the music.

Pete Burns

You shouldn't inflict yourself on the public when your fifteen minutes is up.

There was one point where my mother was dying of lung cancer, and a journalist dressed up as a nurse and got in the house to get a picture of her, dying of lung cancer and stuff like that, and then you realise the fame's not all it's cracked up to be.

Pete Burns

I'm not really the sort to reflect or look forward. I prefer concentrating on the now.

Pete Burns

My behavioural problems are non-existent because all my freakiness, I guess, is manifested in a visual way. And I never have come unravelled.

Pete Burns

There's not a part of me, apart from the soles of my feet, which has not had work done.

Pete Burns

How did I write 'Spin Me?' I listened to Luther Vandross's 'I Wanted Your Love.'

Pete Burns

I collect items like Elvis Presley clock radios and '50s memorabilia. It inspires a lot of my imagery. I like tasteful trash.

Pete Burns

I don't wanna look like a 65-year-old geezer, you know, and I can't really see it happening.

Pete Burns

I had piercings all over my face, which did look dreadful, but I got them done while waiting for my husband Michael to get a tattoo. I was bored.

Pete Burns

From a child, I knew I didn't have the face I wanted to have. My mother was a baroness. She was from Berlin; she was a silent movie actress and friends with Marlene Dietrich. So she knew all about film make-up and prosthetics and stuff like that and what they used to do in those days. And she taught me all that as a child.

Pete Burns

The trouble is that people are all too ready to jump to conclusions about anybody who they think looks a bit strange. They think you must be mentally subnormal.
