John Waters discusses censorship, smoking pot, Andy Warhol, his new book and his films in our 'Last Word' interview
Flying first class when you don’t have to pay for it. The worst is when you’re sick, and people recognize you. I had a kidney stone a couple of years back, in the middle of a book tour, and had to be rushed to the hospital. You’re sitting there and people yell out, “Hey, it’s John Waters!” And somebody else says, “Who’s John Waters?”Success is when you’re never around assholes. It takes your whole life to figure out how to do that.“Don’t go backwards.
I walk in New York and San Francisco. I ride my bike in Provincetown. And in Baltimore, you run when people are after you.Never smoke cigarettes. The fact that smoking can kill you is the only thing the government told you that’s true. [.] I haven’t had a cigarette in 5,765 days.No, but I would. It doesn’t relax me anymore. But whenever I talk to politicians in Baltimore, I say, “Just give people pot.” Who shoots people on pot? You don’t get guns or have gang wars when you’re on pot.
Johnny wanted to do it because he hated being Justin Bieber, which he essentially was at the time. I said, “Stick with us. We’ll kill that.” And Traci had just escaped from the porn world, so I said, “Come with us and play a bad girl.” She made fun of it. Patti Hearst made fun of being a victim. You make fun of it, and they can’t use it against you.
