I told the record company I didn't feel the need to be at red-carpet events. I wanted a career. But I wanted to keep myself intact as a person.
This is Red Barber speaking. Let me say hello to you all.
Even as a child, I knew what I didn't want. I didn't want to wear red lipstick.
I've been very happy with the commercial Linux CD-ROM vendors linux Red Hat.
I like smudgy black eyes and pale lips for evening. Red lipstick looks great on other girls, but its too much on me.
I can't see myself without pink lipstick. I can go without it for a couple of days, but if there was no more pink lipstick in this world, I'd be useless. Seriously.
The world was like a huge red carpet out ahead of me to be walked on. And it stretched on and on, no end.
But for real, for me, I feel like with the red lipstick thing it all depends on the pair of complexion. I'm just being for real. You have to be fair skinned to get away with that.
The red lips are - I don't want to call them "armor," but they're the clothes of my character, and I'm in the business of entertainment. Wearing red lipstick helps get me into that world.
For me the visual is just as important as the music. I would never record without my red lipstick. It was my way of getting into character, sort of like Method singing.
