Fiona Apple on touring, Justin Bieber’s chart-gaming, and finally watching Jennifer Lopez's mind-altering pole-dance to “Criminal” in Hustlers
Photo: Courtesy of Fiona Apple I first spoke with Fiona Apple back in September, after she spontaneously emailed me and gave her first interview in seven years. She was in the midst of working on a new album, her first since 2012’s The Idler Wheel, and had quite happily become the sort of homebody who rarely left her house except to walk her dogs.
I hope you do. So let’s talk about the donations. Tell me a little about where that money is going specifically. It’s hard to hold yourself accountable, so if you make a pledge in public, you have to do it. If I do go on tour, I want my opener to be Stand Up for Pits — they do stand-up comedy, and it all goes to pit-bull rescue.
So I feel like I’m stepping back into a business where, like — I’m not in this business. I don’t have the tools to play this game, and I don’t want to buy the tools to play this game, either. That’s what it feels like it’s become: a game. A video game, basically. Checking their scores.It’s very sad. And with YouTube going to charts … I don’t read this stuff because I’m in this business. It’s just really interesting to me. It’s the downfall of civilization.
