"I didn't prepare a speech and I'm sorry, but I'm glad that I didn't, because I'm not going to do this like everybody else does it . . . You see, Maya Angelou said that we, we as human beings at our best can only created opportunities and I'm going to use this opportunity the way that I wanna use it . . . So what I wanna say is, everybody that's watching this world, this world is bullshit and you shouldn't model your life about what you think that we think is cool and what we're wearing and what we're saying. Go with yourself . . . And it's just stupid that I'm in this world, but you're all very cool to me . . ."
From a letter to her fans, posted on her official Web site, explaining her MTV Video Music Awards Best New Artist acceptance speech: "When I won, I felt like a sellout. I felt that I deserved recognition but that the recognition I was getting was for the wrong reasons. I felt that now, in the blink of an eye, all of those people who didn't give a fuck who I was, or what I thought, were now all at once just humoring, appeasing me, and not because of my talent, but instead because of the fact that somehow, with the help of my record company, and my makeup artist, my stylist and my press, I had successfully created the illusion that I was perfect and pretty and rich, and therefore living a higher quality of life . . . I'd saved myself from misfit status, but I'd betrayed my own kind by becoming a paper doll in order to be accepted."
