Conventional Life

I Hadn't Been Onstage In A While. The Last Time Was Pre-children. And Before I Went On [at Roseland], My Kids Were Backstage, And I Thought, This Isn't How I Usually Do It. I've Got Kids, And I'm Thinking, This Is Weird. It's Weird Juggling Children On Your Knee While You're In Your Rhinestone Outfit. And I'm Thinking, Okay, I'm Gonna Go Out And Do A Show And I'm Gonna Be Superwoman! But I'm Not Really, `cause I'm A Mom. It's All Very Strange.

I Panic Every Time I Put Out A Record. I Think Every Artist Does.

There's A Certain Satisfaction In A Little Bit Of Pain.

When You're 25, It's A Little Bit Easier To Be Daring, Especially If You Are A Pop Star, Because Eccentric Behavior Is Expected From You.

My Father Had To Go To Work, I Used To Think He Was A Jerk. I Didn't Know His Heart Was Broken, And Not Another Word Was Spoken.

When I Think About Popular Culture, I Can't Help But Think That We're Living In The Age Of Loneliness. There's This Illusion That We All Have Instant Access To Each Other, But We Actually Have No Real Connection.

I Think It's Just That As A Creative Person, In All The Different Things That I've Done Or Ways That I've Found To Express Myself, I've Consistently Come Up Against Resistance In Certain Areas. I Think That The World Is Not Comfortable With Female Sexuality. It's Always Coming From A Male Point Of View, And A Woman Is Being Objectified By A Man - And Even Women Are Comfortable With That. But When A Woman Does It, Ironically, Women Are Uncomfortable With It. I Think A Lot Of That Has To Do With Conditioning.

Whenever I Do My Live Shows, I Feel Artistically Inspired And Excited Because I Get To Do And Say A Lot Of Things That I Can't If I Just Make A Record. A Lot Of Times It's The Only Way People Are Going To Hear My Music Because You Don't Get To Have Your Music Played On Top 40 If You're Above The Age Of 35.

I Shouldn't Have Stayed So Long Away. Every Time I Come Here, I Get So Supercharged With Energy. I Truly Believe That Israel Is The Energy Centre Of The World. And I Also Believe That If We Can All Live Together In Harmony In This Place, Then We Can Live In Peace All Over The World.

With All The Chaos, Pain And Suffering In The World, The Fact That My Adoption Of A Child From Who Was Living In An Orphanage, You Know, Was The Number One Story For A Week In The World. To Me, That Says More About Our Inability To Focus On The Real Problems.

My Father Was Very Strict With Me, And I Kept Seeing A Disparity Between Their Freedom And My Lack Of It, Or How I Had All The Responsibilities And They Had None. And The Catholic Church, All Of The Rules, And Why Did I Have To Wear A Dress When They Could Wear Pants? I Would Say To My Dad: 'will Jesus Love Me Less If I Wear Pants? Am I Going To Hell?'

There Are Certain Mystical Belief Systems That Believe That Taking Pictures Takes An Aspect Of The Soul, But Beyond That It's Just The Idea That Once You're Captured In A Photograph, Then A Million Presumptions Are Made Of You, And You Are Forever Frozen In That One Moment, And You Are Perceived To Be The Embodiment Of That Moment, And That, Of Course, Is An Illusion.

I'll Flirt With Anyone From Garbagemen To Grandmothers.

My Goal From The Very Beginning Was Just To Write Good Songs That Don't Require Any Production To Be Felt Or Understood.

What Is The Big Deal About Eminem? Since When Is Offensive Language A Reason For Being Unpopular? I Like The Fact That Eminem Is Brash And Angry And Politically Incorrect. At Least He Has An Opinion. He's Stirring Things Up. He's Provoking A Discussion. He's Making People's Blood Boil. He's Reflecting What's Going On In Society Right Now. That Is What Art Is Supposed To Do.

When I Get Down On My Knees, It Is Not To Pray.

I've Been Inspired By Films Since I Started Dancing, And I'm Married To A Filmmaker, And I Think It Was One Of My Secret Desires, But I Was Afraid To Just Say, 'i Want To Be A Director'. But Then One Day I Said, O.k., Stop Dreaming And Do It. But I Didn't Want To Do It The Hollywood Way, And Talk Through Agents. I Decided It All Had To Be Generated By Me, So I Wrote It.

In England Especially, I've Found That If You Bring Up King Edward Viii And Wallis Simpson At A Dinner Party Or A Social Gathering, It's Like Throwing A Molotov Cocktail Into The Room.

I Know I Can Feel Bad, When I Get In A Bad Mood, And The World Can Look So Sad, Only You Make Me Feel Good.

I Wanted To Know Why People Follow Rules Blindly, Or Why Girls Had To Act A Certain Way And Boys Didn't. Why Could Boys Ask Girls Out And Girls Not Ask Guys Out? Why Did Girls Have To Shave Their Legs And Guys Didn't? Why Did Society, Like, Set Everything Up The Way They Did? My Whole Adolescence Was Full Of Unanswered Whys. Because They Never Got Answered, I Just Kept Lighting Fires Everywhere - Metaphorically Speaking.

Powerful Women Are A Threat In Any Society Which Is Why I Am Such A Target.

I Didn't Really Give A Sh** What's Going On In The Rest Of The World. I Just Didn't. I Just Wanted To Focus On Me, Me, Me, My Career, My Life, Just Me - Blinders.

Deep In My Heart I'm Concealing Things That I'm Longing To Say. Scared To Confess What I'm Feeling - Frightened You'll Slip Away.

I've Always Wanted To Be Taller. I Feel Like A Shrimp, But That's The Way It Goes. I'm Five-foot Four-and-a-half-inches - That's Actually Average. Everything About Me Is Average. Everything's Normal, In The Books. It's The Things Inside Me That Make Me Not Average.

I Also Feel More Italian When My Hair Is Dark.

I Go To Malawi Twice A Year. It's Where Two Of My Children Were Adopted From, And I Have A Lot Of Projects There That I Go And Check Up On And Children Who I Look After. It's Sort Of A Commitment That I've Made To This Country And The Hundreds Of Thousands Of Children There Who Have Been Orphaned By Aids.

I've Never Really Lived A Conventional Life, So I Think It's Quite Foolish For Me Or Anyone Else To Start Thinking That I Am Going To Start Making Conventional Choices.

I Get Strength From My Art - All The Paintings I Own Are Powerful.

I Don't Care Anymore If People Dress Like Me, Now I Want Them To Think Like Me.

I Wake Up Every Morning And It's Like When You Break Up With Somebody Who Has Really Broken Your Heart.

The Next Time You Want Pussy, Just Look In The Mirror Baby

I've Studied Kabbalah, As You Know, For Many Years, So There Are A Lot Of Things I Do That One Would Associate With Practising Judaism. I Hear The Torah Every Saturday. I Observe Shabbat. I Say Certain Prayers. My Son Was Bar Mitzvahed. So This Appears Like I'm Jewish, But These Rituals Are Connected To What I Describe As The Tree Of Life Consciousness And Have More To Do With The Idea Of Being An Israelite, Not Jewish.

When My World Seems To Crumble All Around, And Foolish People Try To Bring Me Down, I Just Think Of Your Smile Face, And I'm Flying.

It Would Be So Helpful For The Straight Community To See Men In Powerful Positions Coming Out And Saying "i'm Gay" So They Don't Have These Preconceived Notions That All Gay Men Are Smarmy Idiots Living On The Street Or Whatever It Is People Think Of Gay Men. I Think It Would Be Really Helpful And Productive.

I've Been Popular And Unpopular Successful And Unsuccessful Loved And Loathed And I Know How Meaningless It All Is. Therefore I Feel Free To Take Whatever Risks I Want.

I Am A Survivor. I Am Like A Cockroach, You Just Can't Get Rid Of Me.

In My Coming-of-age Time, There Was No Internet, No Social Networking, Nothing. It Was Just Show After Show, Hoping One Day Somebody Would Notice You.

Sexism - You Can't Be Sexy And Intelligent. It's Not Allowed.

A Lot Of People Are Just Really Confused By Me; They Don’t Know What To Think Of Me, So They Try To Compartmentalize Me Or Diminish Me. Maybe They Just Feel Unsafe. But Any Time You Have An Overtly Emotional Or Irrational, Negative Reaction To Something, You’re Fearing Something That It’s Bringing Up In You.

You Didn't Understand Or Care To Know, You Get Your Education From Your Lovers.

Don't Go For Second Best. Put Your Love To The Test.

It's Weird Juggling Children In A Rhinestone Outfit.

I'm Constantly Exploring Spirituality, Sexuality, Different Aspects Of Love, Whether It's Romantic Love Or The Love You Have For Your Children. And Love Can Be As Devastating And Destructive As It Can Be Rejuvenating And Life-giving. I Guess I Try To Capture All Of That.

My Son Youngest Son David's Favorite Song - He Plays Guitar - And He Likes "devil Pray." That's His Favorite.

I Like To Touch People's Hearts.

I'm Not Claiming To Appeal To The Same People That Christina Aguilera Or Britney Spears Are Going To Appeal To. I'm Not Trying To. I'm Doing What I Want To Do.

I'm Sentimental About Jesus On The Cross. Jesus Was A Jew, And Also I Believe He Was A Catalyst, And I Think He Offended People Because His Message Was To Love Your Neighbour As Yourself; In Other Words, No One Is Better Than Somebody Else. He Embraced All People, Whether It Was A Beggar On The Street Or A Prostitute, And He Admonished A Group Of Jews Who Were Not Observing The Precepts Of The Torah. So He Rattled A Lot Of People's Cages.

We're In The World Of Creating Illusions And Giving People The Ability To Dream And To Be Inspired Or Moved.

I Think There Probably Was A Time When I Was Less Provocative. That's When I Was Married.

I Guess I Like To Have Fun.

To Me Punk Rock Is Thinking Outside Of The Box, Outside Of The Program, Outside The Establishment.

To Me, The Whole Process Of Being A Brush Stroke In Someone Else's Painting Is A Little Difficult

I Became Very Obsessed With Death, And The Idea That You Never Know When Death Will Arrive, So One Has To Do As Much As Possible All The Time To Get The Most Out Of Life. That Would Be A Motivating Force.

Never Forget To Dream.

Because I've Taken My Clothes Off In Public Doesn't Mean That I've Revealed Every Inch Of My Soul.

In This Business, My Business, I Get To Meet All Kinds Of Incredible People, Fascinating People, Glamorous People And Sexy People And Highly Intellectual People. And You Meet Them And You Go 'interesting, Interesting, Interesting'. They're Interesting, But Not Very Many People Stop You In Your Tracks.

I Like Talking; I Like Playing With The Audience.

Bad Girl, Drunk By Six, Kissing Someone Else's Lips. Smoked To Many Cigarettes Today, I'm Not Happy When I Act This Way.

I Know The Aspect Of My Personality, Being The Vixen, The Heartbreaker And The Incredibly Provocative Girl Is A Very Marketable Image, But It's Not Insincere. You Just Can't Take It Seriously.

I Don't Believe There's A Certain Age Where You Can't Say And Feel And Be Who You Want To Be.

The Cross Is A Very Powerful Symbol And It Symbolizes Suffering, But It Also Is Connected To A Person Who Was Loving And Sharing And His Message Was About Unconditional Love. I Tried To Take A Powerful Image And Use It To Draw Attention To A Situation That Needs Attention. For Me, We All Need To Be Jesus In Our Time. Jesus' Message Was To Love Your Neighbor As Yourself And These Are People In Need.

I’m A Role Model For Those Who Dare To Be Different. For Those Who Dare To Take A Stand In Their Life And Have An Opinion

I Think The Silence Would Be Good With Me, And Not Interacting With People Would Be Okay. But Not Being Able To Move Outside Of The Space Would Be Hard. Not Being Able To Walk Around - The Stillness Of My Body, Physically - That Would Be The Challenge.

I Always Wished That I Could Find Someone As Beautiful As You, But In The Process I Forgot That I Was Special Too.

I'm Not Crazy About How Sort Of Homogenized Pop Music Become. It Used To Be Much More Diverse. Maybe It's Just What's Played On The Radio Sounds Very Much The Same.

Do I Have To Change My Name, Will It Get Me Far? Should I Lose Some Weight, Am I Gonna Be A Star?

That's What I Mean About Catholicism - Your Sexual Life Is Supposed To Be Dead If You're A Good Catholic. That's Wrong. It's Human Nature To Be Sexual, So Why Would God Want You To Deny Your Human Nature?

On Any Given Night, Catch Me On The Floor, Working Up A Sweat, That’s What Music’s For.

Bad Habits Die Hard...........❤ #livingforlove ❤ #rebelheart

I Cheat On My Books A Lot, Which Is Not A Good Thing Because It's Good To Stick With One Book And Get To The End Of It, But I'm A Book Philanderer.

Ever Since My Daughter Was Born I Feel The Fleetingness Of Time. And I Don't Want To Waste It On Getting The Perfect Lip Color.

I Do See That The World That We Live In Is Collapsing To A Certain Extent, And Civilization As We Know It Is Caving In On Itself. I Believe That We Are At A Very Low Level Of Consciousness, And We Do Not Know How To Treat Each Other As Human Beings. We Are Caught Up In Our Own Lives, Our Own Needs, Our Own Ego Gratification. I Feel A Strong Sense Of Responsibility In Delivering That Message.

I Was Sacked From Dunkin' Donuts For Squirting The Donuts Jelly All Over The Customers.

I Keep Telling Everyone That I Want To Start A Revolution But No One Is Taking Me Seriously. If I Had Black Skin And An Afro, Would You Take Me Seriously? If I Was An Arab Waving A Hand Grenade, Would You Take Me Seriously?

Suffering Is A Big Informer, A Big Catalyst For Creation. You Take Your Sadness, Your Despair, Your Sense Of Injustice, And You Put It In Your Work.

My Mother Died When I Was Five, And All I Did Was Sit And Cry. I Cried And Cried And Cried All Day, Until The Neighbors Went Away.

Being Poor In Africa Is Something People In America Can't Relate To. Part Of The Challenge Is Bringing That Reality To People And Moving Them. You Have To Arouse Compassion.

Only When I'm Dancing Can I Feel This Free.

Strong Women Leave Big Hickies

Some People Out There Think Everything I Do Is A Publicity Stunt, They Think When I Go To The Bathroom It's A Publicity Stunt.

I Hope I Will Always Have The Ability To Create Art And Live In A World Where I Can Speak Freely, And I Can Inspire People. I Don't Know What Form That Will Take.

I Really Want To See Everything. If It's Around Me And It's Part Of My Show, I Need To Be A Part Of All Of It. From The Creation Of The Music, To The Surface Of The Floor, To Everyone's Hairstyle, To The Details With The Buttons And The Bows And The Snaps And The Zippers. All Of Those Things!

I'm Not Going To Compromise My Artistic Integrity.
