It is so hard for musicians when they step into acting is they're not coming in as a blank slate, they're coming in with a real set idea of who they are, where they're coming from, what their politics are, what their tastes are.

I want to hang out in Edinburgh with my friends and eat fish and chips wrapped in newspaper.
Shirley Manson
Image
When somebody asks me a question, I try to be as straightforward about it as possible. I try not to overthink what I'm going to say in an interview.
Shirley Manson
Image
I am naive. I make mistakes - But I don't give a rat's arse how I am perceived!
Shirley Manson
Image
I was always embarrassed because my dad wore a suit and my mother wore flat pumps and a cozy jumper while my friends' parents were punks or hippies.
Shirley Manson

I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.
Shirley Manson
