No, I've Never Wanted Kids. But I

As A Person Who Performs On Stage, It's Good To Be Emotionally Open. If You Mess With Someone When They Are In That State, It's Like You're Messing With An Animal When It's Eating.

And If I'm Being Honest, I Don't Think I Have An Ex-boyfriend Who Would Have Something Mean To Say About Me.

When I Was A Kid--10, 11, 12, 13--the Thing I Wanted Most In The World Was A Best Friend. I Wanted To Be Important To People; To Have People That Understood Me. I Wanted To Just Be Close To Somebody. And Back Then, A Thought Would Go Through My Head Almost Constantly: "there's Never Gonna Be A Room Someplace Where There's A Group Of People Sitting Around, Having Fun, Hanging Out, Where One Of Them Goes, 'you Know What Would Be Great? We Should Call Fiona. Yeah, That Would Be Good.' That'll Never Happen. There's Nothing Interesting About Me." I Just Felt Like I Was A Sad Little Boring Thing.

But I Honestly Don't Read Critics. My Dad Reads Absolutely Everything Ever Written About Me. He Calls Me Up To Read Ecstatic Reviews, But I Always Insist That I Can't Hear Them. If You Give Value To The Good Reviews, You Have To Give Value To The Criticism.

There Are Lots Of Poster Children For Angst. But There Aren't Many Poster Children For Cool Angst. Everybody Thinks It's Cool If You're The Bad Girl. But What About The People Who Are Really Not Feeling That Great? Why Can't I Get Up In Front Of Millions Of People, As A Person Who Represents My Generation, And Tell Them That I'm Angry? Who Puts These Limits On What My Personality Should Be In Public?
