Top Glam Quotes

Glam Quotes By Gary Kemp

Punk was sort of an angry stance against things that had happened just before, against the pop of glam rock, against progressive rock. Music had become very staid and it was about the playing and people obsessed. Eric Clapton was God and we needed an enema within the art form, and punk did do that. — Gary Kemp

Glam Quotes By Sonam Kapoor

I like wearing beautiful clothes, but that does not translate into my work. People don't like to see me as a glam doll in my movies. My audience and the media love me with two different perceptions. It's a strange, crazy situation. — Sonam Kapoor

Glam Quotes By David Byrne

The WASP style was often portrayed on TV and in movies as a sort of archetypical American look, and some of my new friends seemed to subscribe to it. I decided I'd try it too. I'd tried other looks previously, like Glam dude and Amish geezer, so why not this one? — David Byrne

Glam Quotes By Todd Haynes

I think that's what I love about glam-rock. It invited you to participate. It asked you to change yourself in all these different ways, or offered up all these options. — Todd Haynes

Glam Quotes By Kim Cattrall

I got to L.A., and they said I had to lose weight, let my hair grow and buy some dresses. I was nailing auditions with my readings, but they wouldn't hire me because I wasn't putting on the glam. It just didn't occur to me. — Kim Cattrall

Glam Quotes By Jamie Lee Curtis

I never represented glam. That's the thing, you'll never see me in the front row of a fashion show. I'm uninterested in it. I find it trivial and banal and boring. — Jamie Lee Curtis

Glam Quotes By Christian Lacroix

That was the idea behind glam clubs like Seven and The New Eve. You could eat and dance to live music. To enter you had to descend a grand staircase. — Christian Lacroix

Glam Quotes By Bipasha Basu

If I want to be the sexy Bipasha Basu, then I'll do a song here or a glam role there. But I want to be part of films that are watched, films that earn money and are new age, with author-backed roles. — Bipasha Basu

Glam Quotes By Naima Simone

Guurl. Tell me. Do you keep your hair this long for religious reasons? Like, will you lose your strength if you cut it?--Terry, a member of the glam squad, to Khloe Richardson — Naima Simone

Glam Quotes By Tracy K. Smith

Time never stops, but does it end? and how many lives
before take-off, before we find ourselves
beyond ourselves, all glam-glow, all twinkle and gold? — Tracy K. Smith

Glam Quotes By Rick Wakeman

But I'd play on everything from pop records to a lot of the glam stuff to rock stuff to classical stuff. I used to get called to do all those things, it was great. — Rick Wakeman

Glam Quotes By Brandi Carlile

My songwriting is so influenced by orchestrated music, dramatic, super glam rock-y stuff. Two of my biggest influences in songwriting were Elton John and Freddie Mercury. — Brandi Carlile

Glam Quotes By Rita Ora

I love masculine cuts with suits and chunky jewellery. My hair is so glam, it balances it out, and it's comfy! — Rita Ora

Glam Quotes By David Bowie

Glam really did plant seeds for a new identity. I think a lot of kids needed that - that sense of reinvention. Kids learned that however crazy you may think it is, there is a place for what you want to do and who you want to be. — David Bowie

Glam Quotes By Dita Von Teese

I don't work with a stylist, I don't work with a glam squad to get me together for the red carpet, I really enjoy the time it takes to do it myself, to choose my clothes and do my own makeup and my own hair. — Dita Von Teese

Glam Quotes By Jennifer Hudson

No matter how big the glam squad, or how dramatic the dress, sometimes things just don't work out. — Jennifer Hudson

Glam Quotes By David Bowie

I'm wary of the word glam because I think that became the all-inclusive term with for any bloke with lipstick on, which is fine, you know, and that's what it is when it comes down to the public level. — David Bowie

Glam Quotes By Joel McHale

Yes, I would say my comedy is grunge, evidenced by the fact my jokes have put an end to big-hair glam comedy. — Joel McHale

Glam Quotes By Todd Haynes

I'm not ready to give up gayness in and of itself as something unique and different. A litmus test for me for all of it was the bisexual imagination and the androgynous imagination of the Glam era. Because that meant everybody was implicated in this uncertain sense of sexual self, and it meant that everything was unstable. I guess I'm just not that interested in stable notions of identity, whatever they are. — Todd Haynes

Glam Quotes By Rachel Caine

Oh, come on, just this once," Eve said. "Protects your neck. As in your arteries and veins?
That's kind of crucial, right?"
"Thanks for the thought, but it doesn't go with my shoes."
"You're seriously going to worry about what people think right now?"
"No, I'm worrying about people taking pictures and putting them on Facebook. That crap never dies. Kind of like you, Mikey."
Michael, straight-faced, said, "He's got a point, because I would definitely take pictures. So would you."
Eve had to grin. "Yeah, I would. Okay, then. But you'd look glam. I could fix you up with silver eye shadow to match. — Rachel Caine

Glam Quotes By NeNe Leakes

I have a glam-baby. Let's be correct, now. I'm way too young and too fabulous to be a grandma. I'm a glam-mom. — NeNe Leakes

Glam Quotes By Kathryn Hahn

'Free Agents' was an awesome experience. I never play the glam girl in anything, so that was a new experience. I would walk into one of my trailers and it would be like Spanx, a spray-tan gun, and chicken cutlets. I would have hair extensions. It was hilarious. Every day felt like I was turning into an awesome drag queen. — Kathryn Hahn

Glam Quotes By Katy Perry

I don't follow trends. I'm just not into what everyone else is wearing. I have my own look, which I call 'Lolita Meets Old Hollywood Glam.' — Katy Perry

Glam Quotes By John Green

I laughed and pointed out that "Hash Browns Mean Nothing Without You" was a pretty good name for a band.
"Or a song," the Duke said, and then she started singing all glam rock, a glove up to her face holding an imaginary mic as she rocked out an a cappella power ballad. "Oh, I deep fried for you / But now I weep 'n' cry for you / Oh, babe, this meal was made for two / And these hash browns mean nothing, oh these hash browns mean nothing, yeah these HASH BROWNS MEAN NOTHIN' without you. — John Green

Glam Quotes By Nicolas Winding Refn

I consider it a great honour that my movie Drive inspired so many wonderful artists to come together and create one ultra-cool glam experience. — Nicolas Winding Refn

Glam Quotes By Martin Gore

I've not worn a dress since about 1985. It always amazes me how there is still a fascination for it in England. The rest of the world doesn't seem to care. I'm not sure whether they don't remember or whether they've just moved on from it. I was brought up in the glam era. — Martin Gore

Glam Quotes By Christina Aguilera

I love the old Hollywood glam look: platinum blonde hair, the perfect red lip. It's very Marilyn Monroe and shows a pure feminine beauty. — Christina Aguilera

Glam Quotes By Adam Lambert

I've always been fond of the glam-rocker title. — Adam Lambert

Glam Quotes By Todd Haynes

What was so interesting about the glam era was that it was about bisexuality and breaking down the boundaries between gays and straights, breaking down the boundaries between masculinity and femininity with this androgyny thing. — Todd Haynes

Glam Quotes By Troian Bellisario

I grew up in Hollywood. My father always told me that this is a job. These events are filled with people you work with; it's not like glam-schmooze time. That's why I only like events that celebrate people I have a connection to; otherwise, it's someone else's night, and I don't need to show up in a dress to try and steal their attention. — Troian Bellisario

Glam Quotes By Brian Molko

There's a difference between 'glamour' and 'glam rock'. Glam rock, to me, is a bunch of straight, hairy, football-liking lager lads dressed up in mother's castoffs and glamour is a certain sophistication, a certain other-worldliness, a certain unattainableness, which I think we certainly calculate. We believe that a band should be slightly larger than life - you should be transported to an alternate reality. I'm giving you some really good answers here, I'm very proud of myself. — Brian Molko

Glam Quotes By Shawn Amos

The Dolls were the forefathers of glam. You never knew if they were going to kiss you or punch you. More than likely, they'd do both. — Shawn Amos

Glam Quotes By Suzi Quatro

I never, ever saw myself as glam because I didn't wear makeup ... my image is a plain leather jumpsuit, which is not glam at all. I've always seen myself as rock n' roll and not glam. — Suzi Quatro

Glam Quotes By Francesca Lia Block

Why was fabulousness important? The world was a scary, sad place and adornment was one of the only ways she knew to make herself and the people around her forget their troubles. That was why she had opened her store almost five years ago. Everyone who entered the little square white house with miniature Corinthian columns, cherub statues, and French windows seemed to leave carrying armloads of newly handmade and well spruced-up recycled vintage clothing, humming sixties girl-group songs, seventies glam and punk, eighties New Wave one-hit wonders, or nineties grunge, doing silly dances, and not caring what anyone thought.
Weetzie loved the old dresses she found and sold, because they had their own secret histories. She always wondered where, when, and how they had been worn. What they had seen. Old dresses were like old ladies. — Francesca Lia Block

Glam Quotes By Rihanna

Lipstick can glam up a whole look, especially in red. — Rihanna

Glam Quotes By Vera Wang

I make things of my own that aren't that glam, but I'm not known for that, which has always been a bit of a frustration for me. — Vera Wang

Glam Quotes By Seb Hunter

In the late 80s though, during the new Glam Rock, leather trousers came back with a vengeance. In a way they replaced Spandex, which had slipped slowly out of fashion due to bands like Saxon never being out of the stuff. These new leather trousers began to develop accessories such as tassels, sequins, and laces up the sides. This all looked quite nice for a while, but in the end they were just another easy target for Kurt Cobain and his subversive cardigans. — Seb Hunter

Glam Quotes By Ewan McGregor

I was born in '71, so I remember bits of glam rock on 'Top of the Pops' toward the late '70s, but I had no idea what kind of world it was. I didn't like the music, either. — Ewan McGregor

Glam Quotes By Taylor Dane

I'm sure I'm perceived in a more glam way. This is my breakout if you will. — Taylor Dane

Glam Quotes By Billy Boyd

Life in LA is not lying in the sun for months. It is having a 4pm meeting and leaving at noon to sit in traffic for four hours. It's not glam. — Billy Boyd

Glam Quotes By Barry Ritholtz

Despite all the media coverage, glitz and glam of hedge funds, they have not done well for their investors. They have high - some say excessively high - fees; their short- and long-term performance has been poor. — Barry Ritholtz

Glam Quotes By John Varvatos

In the early '70s, coming out of the '60s, it was very hippy or it was very uniform, like The Beatles all wearing the same suit. Into the '70s, it became much more about a personal style. You had the glam period, which was a lot of fun, and then you went into punk. — John Varvatos

Glam Quotes By Laurent Brancowitz

I thought it was too 'glam rock' to practice. The problem is that now I'm a pretty bad guitar player. — Laurent Brancowitz

Glam Quotes By Robert Smith

I wore makeup when I was at school, and I wore makeup when glam started. I started wearing it again when punk started. I've always been drawn to wearing it. It's partly ritualistic, partly theatrical and partly just because I think I look better with it on. — Robert Smith

Glam Quotes By Layne Staley

I was in a band when I was 15. We were a glam band. Then I couldn't afford to buy makeup. At the time that was the thing. — Layne Staley

Glam Quotes By Ella Henderson

Dressing up and doing photo shoots was a side of the industry I really didn't think I would like. But now I've got a glam squad; I love trying on new outfits and experimenting with different looks. — Ella Henderson

Glam Quotes By King Tuff

I love the sound of '70s glam records. I love that snare sound. The recordings I like, it's all based on if the snare sounds good. The drums have to sound great. — King Tuff

Glam Quotes By Rob Sheffield

You can't beat the beehive for glam punkette attitude. — Rob Sheffield

Glam Quotes By Jay Gordon

I went to glam shows and was inspired by Bowie. — Jay Gordon

Glam Quotes By David Bowie

When it comes down to it, glam rock was all very amusing. At the time, it was funny, then a few years later it became sort of serious-looking and a bit foreboding. — David Bowie

Glam Quotes By Jamie Lee Curtis

I don't have great thighs. I have very big breasts and a soft, fatty little tummy. And I've got back fat. People assume that I'm walking around in little spaghetti-strap dresses. It's insidious - Glam Jamie, the Perfect Jamie, the great figure, blah, blah, blah. And I don't want the unsuspecting 40-year-old women of the world to think that I've got it going on. It's such a fraud. And I'm the one perpetuating it. — Jamie Lee Curtis

Glam Quotes By Kourtney Kardashian

For my eyes, my day-to-day just involves curling my lashes to open up my eyes and applying our mascara, The Quickie. If I'm getting my makeup done, I like to get individual lash extensions or a strip of false lashes, depending on how glam I want to get. — Kourtney Kardashian

Glam Quotes By Ozzy Osbourne

Did you know that the percentage of young people in the crucial 'youthquake' age bracket of 15 to 24 was higher in 1973 than in 1967 ? Therefore it was glam rock that ended the war in Vietnam. — Ozzy Osbourne

Glam Quotes By Victoria Justice

I do love getting dressed up, but sometimes it's glam and edgy mixed together. — Victoria Justice

Glam Quotes By Viola Davis

I am not a glam woman - this definitely is a mask I put on for the public. — Viola Davis

Glam Quotes By Shane West

To me, the 90's signaled the end of glam rock, the beginning of gangsta rap, and hopefully the beginning and end of boy bands. — Shane West

Glam Quotes By Tyra Banks

My mom was a medical photographer, but on the side, she did a before-and-after glam photography business in the house. She would do makeup and hair - and I was her assistant. — Tyra Banks

Glam Quotes By Lady Gaga

Glam culture is ultimately rooted in obsession, and those of us who are truly devoted and loyal to the lifestyle of glamour are masters of its history. Or, to put it more elegantly, we are librarians. — Lady Gaga

Glam Quotes By Stephanie Sigman

I'm pretty spoilt when it comes to having a glam team. — Stephanie Sigman

Glam Quotes By Christina Aguilera

Let's get glam. It's all in the way you move. Let's get glam. Don't let the clothes wear you. Let's get glam. It's all an attitude. — Christina Aguilera

Glam Quotes By Katie Aselton

There was no glam squad, whatsoever. There were no dressing rooms. There were no bathrooms. Let's start at our base level. We didn't have toilet paper. We went to the woods to use the bathroom. — Katie Aselton

Glam Quotes By Kemp Muhl

Glitter is cool because that's like glam rock, but rhinestones need to die out. — Kemp Muhl

Glam Quotes By Rebecca Ferguson

I like Marilyn Monroe; she was super glam, weren't she? — Rebecca Ferguson

Glam Quotes By Todd Haynes

In my research, all roads led back to Oscar. It's definitely in a way trying to understand the truly English element to glam-rock. It really does not come from American culture. — Todd Haynes

Glam Quotes By Ashley Greene

I live a dual life. On the red carpet, it's complete glam. But at home, I'm a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl. Simple can be beautiful. — Ashley Greene

Glam Quotes By Ruby Rose

It sounds cliche, but I'm mostly androgynous in what I wear. I'll wear a lot of tomboy clothes but still dress glam if I have a red carpet event. It's a bit of a mix, but mostly androgynous. — Ruby Rose

Glam Quotes By Debby Ryan

I want to be able to walk a red carpet and look great but also be able to shred onstage and move. So I tend to go for comfort over anything - I like menswear-inspired stuff but I also like getting glam once in awhile. Whatever I wear, I like it to feel very strong and very unique. — Debby Ryan

Glam Quotes By Chuck Klosterman

Both lyrically and sonically, glam metal is the sensible accompaniment for removing one's pants for money. — Chuck Klosterman

Glam Quotes By Paul Westerberg

Having a diverse sense of taste - or lack of taste - I loved so many different things. I was drawn to the stupidity and excitement of glam, I had a thorough upbringing in rhythm and blues. — Paul Westerberg

Glam Quotes By Melissa Landers

A girl's gotta get her glam on when the world turns its back on her. — Melissa Landers

Glam Quotes By Adam Lambert

I like adding little elements into the final mix. I'm more fond of the '70s glam than '80s. I have that style of vocals ... there are a lot of pop artists who are using the glam vibe in their music. I'm part of that wave. — Adam Lambert

Glam Quotes By Nick Rhodes

Style has always been very important to us. We grew up in the '70s. Music was glam rock, punk rock and a very stylish movement. — Nick Rhodes

Glam Quotes By Todd Haynes

The ways in which Oscar Wilde was attacking the Romantics that preceded him, and the Romantic ideas that preceded him, were very similar to what the glam-rockers, particularly Bowie and Bryan Ferry, were attacking in the earnestness of '60s culture. Trying to shock, but with wit, cleverness, and homosexuality. — Todd Haynes
