I'm loath to do interviews. What comes out is generally not what I meant or thought I was saying or thought they were asking.

I never turn down requests for interviews. I'm just rarely asked.

Rarely does an interviewer ask questions you did not expect. I have given a lot of interviews, and I have concluded that the questions always look alike. I could always give the same answers.

I had a reporter ask me how much I weigh. I said to him, 'You go first: How much do you weigh?' People always ask me what I eat. Other artists don't get asked these questions.

When I interview celebrities, I always try to throw them off balance. My favorite is to ask 'em about crazy sex stuff like donkey punches and Monroe transfers. Works every time.

People think I don't like interviews but I don't mind speaking about proper and interesting stuff. When it's stupid stuff to build your image and you are told to mention this and mention that, I hate it.

You're trying to find new ideas in people. I always think to myself, what question I am least comfortable asking the person? And then I make sure I ask it early in the interview.

Most people ask me questions based on a previous interview. That's not an interview. It's like they're just saying my quotes back to me.

I've had designers say to my face, 'Oh, I want to dress you now that you're skinny.' And that's really rude.
