1 | (On her past as a live-sex performer): "It was just like working in a donut shop, except you didn't wear a paper hat." |
2 | Ever since I was little, I've always liked to smash things. Basically, I hate conformity. I hate people telling me what to do. It makes me want to smash things. So-called normal behaviour patterns make me so bored, I could throw up! The Plasmatics [her heavy metal rock group] give me a chance to get this violence out of me, and express it to other people. I don't like comformity. I don't like fashion. I don't like art. I do like smashing up expensive things. |
