Lou Doillon : (4)

" My mission is to get on the stage and say, ‘Listen, I’m a woman, I’m free, I’m a mother, I’m a lover, I’m a friend; I’m shattered by men most of the time, but I’ll keep falling in love with them because it’s the most thrilling thing in the world; that’s what makes me human.’ " - Lou Doillon

" I was kind of ashamed of my bourgeois family as a teenager, I guess – I had dreadlocks, shopped in thrift stores and pretended I had no money. At that time, I would have spat on a girl who was buying Yves Saint Laurent. " - Lou Doillon

" I’m a bit of a contrarian, so I like the idea of going on stage without makeup, without the hair being done, in the jeans and shirt I’ve been wearing all day. At first that was an issue, because I didn’t want to be disrespectful. " - Lou Doillon

" I hate short hair on men – the ‘real’ man is something I don’t know. My dad was always playing with hairbands, making rings, while the women were wearing jeans, white T-shirts and Converse. That was the uniform at home. " - Lou Doillon
