#stardom

Pop stardom is not very compelling. I'm much more interested in a relationship between performer and audience that is of equals. I came up through folk music, and there's no pomp and circumstance to the performance. There's no, like, 'I'll be the rock star, you be the adulating fan.' ↗

The idea of stardom was difficult to grasp. It was like being schizophrenic; there was her, the woman on television, and the real me. ↗
