I'm fascinated by people's obsession with how they look and how humans really do judge you within the first few seconds of meeting you.
— Poppy
I just want to give my fans a place to go where they can be free and nobody will judge them, because life is more interesting when you're looking at it from the outside. I don't think you need to be on the outside looking in; I think you should enjoy the outside.
I really like cages.
Sometimes... I'll just stand there... in the white room... and say stuff. I'm creating high-quality content.
I would really love to work with Max Martin.
Am I a girl, or am I boy? It's a spectrum.
The purpose of VEVO is to continue the tradition of corporations preventing artists from making money on their art.
Goth is dead, punk is dead, and rock n' roll is dead. Trends are dead. Nothing exists anymore because the world is spinning faster than any trend.
I am an important artist. And I make art. Therefore, my opinion matters.
My first dream was probably to become a dancer, but then I became a singer, and that's also a dream of mine, and I get to do it every day, so I'm living it.

I know who famous people are, so I listen to them.

Poppy does not identify with an age.
I think that there should be more artists that want to be the escape for people, for the fans, for the public.
Some days I feel like a girl. Some days I feel like a boy. I don't know which I am.
You can communicate a sad message or perplexing message through happy chords or a happy melody, and I hope to have the listener pose more questions in their life as opposed to going along with the everyday and what's being pushed on them.
I really like listening to books. I listen to them at twice the speed so I can listen to more books.
If it's on the Internet, it's real!
I want to give people who might not feel included a place to go.
My mission is to make the world happy and cute and to love everyone. I think I'm doing a pretty good job.
I don't think music videos are as important as they used to be.
Poppy's world is a magical place, and it's the most free part of the entire universe.
I like famous people!
Maybe I'm a boy, or maybe I'm a girl.
If you really want to understand Hollywood, you have to live in it.
I feel empowered when I create high-quality content on the Internet.
I'm from the Internet.
We need to not pay attention to those losers who tried to push us down the stairs when we were in middle school.
I feel complete when I look at my phone and see thousands of likes and comments.
I think people should just make art and let the art speak for itself.
I hope to help people. I hope that I can be the escape that they need when things seem impossible or too tough.
I'm not the only one that people try to put in a box. I think it's easier for people to understand things when they can categorize them.
I love dancing.
I think everyone else is boring. And I'm not boring.
It's a pretty amazing feeling to know that something I posted on the Internet can impact so many people.
I usually write about what makes me feel good.
The message behind 'Time Is Up' is that robots are starting to take over the world, and we should be aware of it because they're already walking among us.
Something very special happens with music when it is written with great enthusiasm.
So many people have asked me if I am in a cult. I'm not in a cult.

Getting to say that I'm famous on YouTube is fun.
In Hollywood, all of your dreams can come true.
I wanted to work with Diplo for a long time.
I like politics. I have an opinion. I like politics because it's fun.
Poppy doesn't really like interviews.
I don't want people to talk about how old I am; I want them to talk about what I'm making.
