I started recording because I was always complaining about the records that I was getting of my songs. At least if I did them and messed them up, I wouldn’t have anyone else to blame.

We don’t see the people who are doing real things getting enough props. We often see politicians who are everywhere but nowhere at the same goddamn time. You know the kind of person: You see...

I’m concerned about getting Iraq on its feet.

I love sitting in the makeup trailer and getting my makeup done in 15 minutes as opposed to an hour and a half.

I’m not really one of those people who believes that if you’re a musician you can just leave that behind and start getting into politics.
