I'm, like, forever a teenage girl in a way. No matter how hard I try not to be, that's just what I am. All I care about is boys and shopping.
I traded all my 'Star Wars' toys for Pee-wee Herman toys. I wonder if I had a crush or him or something? The colors and the way that everything looked so cool or crazy just appealed to me as a young gay in Tucson.
Being a hairdresser is really fun, especially if you don't work at a stupid rich-lady place. You basically just get paid to hang out and talk with a bunch of cool, weird ladies and help them with their looks.
'Hairdresser Blues' was written when I was deep in a ten-year depression that I escaped shortly after recording that album. I don't like that album.
I just find it weird if you're in a band and you don't know how to make it look the way it sounds. You really need to be involved with the entire creative process in order for it to totally work.
I think it's because all our music videos have chubby girls wearing crazy makeup and crazy gay dudes and trannies that are overly stylized and over-the-top. Being compared to John Waters and girl groups isn't a bad thing, though.
I like in-person interviews, but I do a lot of interviews over the phone, and it's so boring. The same questions over and over.
I blacked out my childhood after a string of traumatic events in my late adolescence.
If I wanted to make a subversive record, it would be horrifying and insane.
