As a singer, if I'm in a room that is too cold, I kind of freak out, so I actually like the humidity, and I love the heat.

I'm very open with people, very warm, when I meet them. My fans in particular find that strange and refreshing.

People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you're in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase.

I think people I'm close to find it absolutely crazy that I'm famous.

Still, the change is nearly indescribable - going from total obscurity to walking down a street in New York and having everybody turn and look; to feel the temperature of a room change when I walked in.

When the audience comes in, it changes the temperature of what you've written.

But I love the hot sweat. I think overheating onstage is invigorating. It's better than being comfortable. I think being comfortable is the death of a show.

It is more interesting to be compared to someone famous, because it lets you gauge what perceptions people have about your appearance.
