It was funny being at high school and also grocery shopping and having a job. Other kids were going home to their parents, who were doing their laundry, and I was like, ‘Wait, what?’ I was super isolated. I was 16, alone in New York, and modelling.
I spent my teens and early 20s shopping almost exclusively at thrift stores.
I love getting dressed up. Being a pop star is the most brilliant job for that. A lot of girls love shopping, but they might see the most amazing outfit and think, ‘When am I going to wear that?’, so it’s my duty to exploit the fact I do have events I can wear these things to.
I’m a sucker for good black skirts and pretty little shirts and kooky tops. I have to admit that shopping satisfies my craving for immediate gratification.
Shopping in Thailand is super cheap and generally high quality. Bangkok is also safe. If you see anybody wearing camouflage holding a machete, don’t be scared. They sell coconuts.
I do most of my shopping online. It’s just convenient for me.
Don’t get me wrong: there are aspects of buying music online that I love. Instantly being able to hear a song the moment it crosses your mind? Where’s the downside? However, I do feel for those too young to remember the thrill of going record shopping.

I change my mind so much, I’m better going on my own. Shopping is a selfish activity anyway.
I always go thrift shopping wherever I am.
I do love to shop. But I’m a social shopper. I like to do it while hanging out with my friends. Some of them hate shopping because they treat it like something you have to plan, like a grocery list. But if I’m out and I pass a store, I just pop in.

I was nine, and I was shopping in a supermarket with my dad. There was this cereal, and it had a special promotion with a CD inside the box that had a really simple music-making program on it. I got it, and that opened my mind to being able to make music on a computer and seeing all the different layers.
Shopping is a bit of a relaxing hobby for me, which is sometimes troubling for the bank balance.
If I go to the department store, I get no excitement: I can buy the entire department store instead of one bag. So I lost excitement of shopping.

Just recently I was in Target with my mom shopping, and out of the blue, I see this father and his two daughters and he says, ‘Can they get a picture with you?’ And I’m thinking to myself, ‘Am I the one millionth customer or something?’
I haven’t done much art shopping in Vegas. It tends to be from galleries that are London- or L.A.- or New York-based. We’ve never had someone standing over our shoulder telling us something is a good investment.

True story – When ‘Candyman’ first came out, my daughter and I were Christmas shopping, and people were harassing us. Finally my daughter puts down her shopping bag and said ‘That’s not Candyman! That’s my dad!’ I will never forget that, because that’s when we really bonded.
Bad shopping habits die hard.
Everybody’s enamored of the iPhone, the Google phone. But the applications are going to change. You know, we’re going to start using our phones for shopping. It’s going to change the nature of advertising.
Every week, I heave open a supermarket skip and find therein a more exotic shopping list of items than I could possibly have invented – Belgian chocolates, ripe bananas, almond croissants, stone-ground raisin bread – often so much it would have fed a hundred people.
I do a lot of thrifting, but I don’t go shopping in a concerted way very often. I find things by accident that I can’t talk myself out of, like armadillo purses.

I’ve been reading comics since I was four. I used to get them when I would go grocery shopping with my mom. I remember getting the digest versions of old DC comics. The one that I remember reading first was Paul Levitz’ ‘Justice Society of America’ stuff that he was doing in the ’70s.

I can vividly remember the first time I ate a pasty. After a busy day shopping with my gran, she treated me to one. Wide-eyed and with a watering mouth, I chomped down into the crisp, buttery casing. It yielded to my eager bite; the pastry flaked and fluttered down my front.
In West Yorkshire, I’d have to drive three quarters of an hour to go shopping.
Especially when it comes to social and shopping, women rule the Internet.
From 13, I knew my family was different to anybody else’s. You weren’t allowed to talk back at your parents or look at them funny.

I’ve been going to shopping malls since I was on General Hospital.
