I mean I like pop music, and I like heavy music and, stuff that I like... the band I've signed on to our label right now; they're called The Sounds. They're kind of like a new-wave pop band.
The Ramones were American, and I knew about them, and I thought they were interesting. But they were like a pop band to me.
One Direction. Proper pop band. There has to be a band that people want to scream at. I don't think I've ever behaved like a pop star.
Like it or not, I am part of the pop culture of films in Hollywood.
I like pop music. I consider rock 'n' roll to be a branch of pop music.
I don't like a lot of pop music. But I like the idea of pop music.
When I finish something, I want it out that day. Pop music is like the daily paper. Its got to be there then, not six months later.
I really felt like 'Chandelier' was a big pop song. But we weren't sure what would happen if I wasn't willing to show my face and do promo and go on tour and do the traditional kind of pop strategy. So I had no expectations.
Now my music is kind of pop-rock, right? If I'm 25 and singing still, I don't want to be singing music like that.
If I don't work, I'll be sitting on the couch watching TV, eating popcorn and getting like a cow.
I was offered 'Popeye,' which Robert Altman made. They offered me $2 million to direct that, which was good money. I wasn't interested in it. I don't like that kind of movie.
I listened a little to punk when I was younger, but it was straight edge punk. It was nothing like what is going on now, like poppy punk.
Poppy doesn't really like interviews.
I grew up with my moms and pops. Pops was in jail for, like, three years.
I feel a vocabulary in my music that is coming from popular music. Popular music is like the mother of all languages.
I don't like it when people spout about the popular opinion just to make it louder.
Some countries, like Saudi Arabia, where the population growth is very high, whereby you don't have the mortgage low yet. Still the demand outstrips supply by much.
I like to think that I'm a populist entertainer, but I'm a little bit idiosyncratic, and sometimes the networks wouldn't really roll with that.
Ultimately, my goal is to inspire little brown girls that look like me, that are sitting on the porch wearing cornrows.
Pork was in 1971, and I stopped hanging out at The Factory by like 1973.
