The reason I want to show shocking things is that they always pose an ethical question.
People say I am the king of painful shoes. I don't want to create painful shoes, but it is not my job to create something comfortable. I try to make high heels as comfortable as they can be, but my priority is design, beauty and sexiness. I'm not against them, but comfort is not my focus.
History is full of really good stories. That's the main reason I got into this racket: I want to make the argument that history is interesting.

Many people today don't want honest answers insofar as honest means unpleasant or disturbing, They want a soft answer that turneth away anxiety.
I think people are free to marry any way they want to. But churches are free to set standards for marriage.
It's the faster bands that made me want to play guitar, bands like The Jam.
I've always been into guitars... we want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don't look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John.

I want to have the freedom to do whatever I want.
I eat a light but sustaining dinner before the show: a bunch of greens and some non-gluten quinoa or rice. I'll have a snack at intermission. I'm trying so hard not to have meals after the show because it's so late, but sometimes I just want a big bowl of pasta.

God knows, we don't want prayer.

I am a firm believer that you can have the body you want, only to the extent that you're willing to work for it.
Music is great; it all depends on what mood you're in, what you want to listen to. If it's party time, you listen to, you know, party music, if you want to dance with somebody. But then again, if it's a slow dance, you need something slow.
I'm not perfect in my walk but I want to do the right thing.

I care so much about making things that are useful for people to have and listen to, but I don't care so much that I won't do whatever the hell I want. It's just one of those things.
