"The video is meant as satire," she says. "It's based on the story of the Golden Calf. Decadence is peaking. Everyone is slowly awakening. Even me. I think we're moving into a period where spirituality is going to be much more prevalent than ****ing cash flow. I don't give a **** about anything in excess. I just want to make art and help people. That's it. 'Opulence' makes fun of all that."
On her love life and sex life:
Quote:
"I believe in sexual freedom, I promote it, but me personally? I haven't had sex in six, eight months, maybe longer. I think to have sex you should be in love... I'll meet the love of my life when I meet the person who can see through every layer I have that's meant to distract you and throw you off. I've been mistreated and abused my whole life, so I have these barriers up and I'm waiting to find the person who sees through that."
On her breaking into the mainstream:
Quote:
"I don't believe in 'selling out,'" says Candy about entering the mainstream. "I'll wear the glitter that'll get your attention because underneath that, I actually have something to say... Pop music gives me this huge platform to reach tons of people and actually stand for positive change. I don't think that's a problem but a lot of people see that as threatening."
