Working for me is like a gift!
I love the ’80s. I’m obsessed with it. I love the hair and the people.
I’m quite sarcastic, and I’m funny, but not kind of funny. It’s a weird funny, and some people don’t get me, and some people do.
I’m very outspoken. I will ask a silly question, but I really am deadly serious. I want to know the answer.
I could live without my phone. And one thing I’d love to do is experience having the freedom that kids had back in the ’80s.
It’s nice having famous people love you.
For some reason, I like seeing people feel emotional.
I’ve still got a twinkle in me.
I’m pleased with how ridiculous I am. I like me. Though I’m not a huge fan. I know when to switch me off.
I love funky styles. Not preppy or rock, just funky! Vanessa: (on her mom) She gave up so much for me. She moved many times so I could follow my career. Vanessa: I’ve always had problems with guys!
Canada is like a loft apartment over a really great party.
When you go to Marvel, they lock you in a room with the scripts; they really are that secretive.
When I was 17, my producer Rodney Jerkins was working with Michael Jackson at the time. He knew how much I wanted to meet Michael Jackson, so he says, ‘Would you like to come and meet him?’ I’m like, ‘Are you serious? Of course I want to meet Michael Jackson! Where do I meet you? Where do we come?’
I hope im not that close to my character, I hate him, I used to hate everbody like Cedric in my school.
Calling Jeremy Corbyn the British Bernie Sanders’ would be very reductive, very simplistic and probably the best way to explain him to Americans, while being wildly inaccurate. As for Corbyn and Sanders, I think we’ll have to wait and see whether being principled actually gets you anywhere. I don’t think you can doubt the tenacity of their beliefs. But can you translate that into power?
Well, I don’t like the word ‘rock star,’ the two words, ‘rock star.’ Not even ‘soft rock star’. Not even limestone star. I don’t like those words.
I love hearing educated people talk and just shut everyone up. Knowledge is always the loudest voice.
I can do the Chipmunk voice and impressions of Judy Garland, Debbie Reynolds and Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music. I could probably do the whole Von Trapp family.
Some people misconstrue our band just to be a commercial venture.
But once I acclimated and really used fame for what it was offering me as a tool to serve my life purpose of inspiring and contributing, then it started to get fun again.
The Troubadour was the only place where you could go and showcase for record companies. If you were lucky you might get to sing three or four songs that night.
Yes, Arnold Schwarzenegger did a really bad job as Governor of California and even worse on the Apprentice but at least he tried hard!
