I would love to do more private concerts.

We're all private people, but as a musician, I think that once you get to the point where there's more of your life behind you than in front of you, you owe it to your public to explain yourself.

I try to be careful not to do single concerts where I fly out, do my show, turn around and go home.

I'm a very private person, and when I leave the stage, I leave the stage.

When I am not on the stage, it is always very difficult for the public to find me! I am a private person who does not always want to be in the spotlight!

People buy a ticket to see your show, so from the moment I get onstage, I can have no insecurities, because they're already there. You have to get people to listen. If they listen, everything's cool.

I'm scared of audiences. One show in Amsterdam I was so nervous, I escaped out the fire exit. I've thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile vomited on someone. I just gotta bear it. But I don't like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot.

I'm just not a private person. It's not like I do things because I want things to be public; it's just that's my way of expressing myself, and I happen to be very famous.

People speculate on your personal life all the time anyway. So I just think it's important to keep my private life private and my public persona more into music, you know?
