When it comes to the stage, I can't help but be inspired by people like George Clinton, Elton John and Alice Cooper.
— CeeLo Green
There was a time when I didn't like myself at all. I thought I was a cruel joke. But now I've come to realise that maybe I am not cute, but I am beautiful.
Tolerance, compromise, understanding, acceptance, patience - I want those all to be very sharp tools in my shed.
So many of the bands that influenced me growing up were English, even if I didn't realise it. English pop ruled the world in the '80s!
I'm a little lavish I must admit. But I'm not really concerned with money. Being rich is not my goal, being wealthy is.
The fact that you can love something that you've lost is all the incentive you need to love again, as opposed to becoming comfortably numb.
I don't judge people. I don't even judge people on 'The Voice.' I'm a coach. I'm there for constructive criticism and to aid and abet and discover new talent.
I cry all the time. Music makes me cry.
I'm not allowed to be as liberal as I would like to be, you know? I'd do a lot more damage if I could!
Music saved my life. The voice you hear, the soul, the pain, is that of a person who deeply, deeply, deeply appreciates the opportunity they've been given.
But I still feel like a normal person... I've walked the streets and I know what it feels like. I speak with humility, and apparently those songs connect with people.
I think I'll always be famous. I just hope I don't become infamous.
Antique things have an appreciation and worth. Something can be old, but it can be timeless; therefore, it becomes an antique. If this antique is preserved and deemed precious, it could be passed down as a family heirloom.
My insurance provider probably wouldn't allow me to go into a mosh pit anymore. My brain is insured by Lloyd's of London, you know what I'm saying?
I hate hateful people.
I'm an artist, and I like the risk - I'm not in it for the sure things.
I've been such an oddball my whole life, but I've always been cool and I've always dressed fairly smartly.
On a good day I think I'm handsome, on an average day I'm average. I'm a man's man so I don't necessarily know how cute we're supposed to be.
Well, I've cleaned bathrooms in a warehouse. That was pretty terrible. But I can't complain because I'm sure other people have done worse.
Twitter is a form of free speech, and I'm all for that. But if Cee Lo Green, a maverick of sorts, can't get on Twitter and say something outlandish or outrageous, then what is the whole point of Twitter at all?
Like most artists, I live out of a suitcase.
