I want to create a little chaos and make people's heads turn.
Well, 'Problematic' was the opposite of a show that was nostalgic and a light fluffy look at life. We were literally trying to kick a hornets' nest, and I don't know how effectively we did or didn't do that.
It's only by being disruptive that you get people to have a conversation about an issue.
There are times when being scandalous or provocative can help bring focus to issues of major concern.
I'm a provocateur.
I'm a shocker. I like to create controversy. It's my trademark.
I like stirring things up. I'm on the side of the kids more than I am on the adults. And occasionally I find some adults that have that same mischievous streak, so I don't get in too much trouble.
It's sometimes said that I'm rebellious and I do things to push people's buttons, but I just like the challenge.
Add not fire to fire.
I think there are some people who are just kind of born to create drama and then capitalise on it.
My friends would certainly call me out if I didn't say that I like to create a bit of chaos and stir things up in my own life.
I'm fine with being a little bit of an instigator.
I sometimes feel that I have been born to attract controversy.
I like to rattle cages.
I make enemies deliberately. They are the sauce piquante to my dish of life.
Any time you make a big statement about something in the world, you are bound to ruffle some feathers.
Writers who take on polarising issues are apt to step on a few toes.
Controversy seems to be a by-product of what I do, rather like offence is the by-product of a dog urinating on the pavement. It just happens.
Stirring is OK. It just depends what happens in the end.
I can open up any can of worms and get people upset.
Hopefully people are upset for the reason I want them to be upset. Even when I was doing open mics, I've always had people upset. I've never been the consummate crowd-pleaser.
Controversy is always a beautiful thing. I love controversy and I try to fan it as much as I can without having my husband's head pop off!
