“I'm just doing what I want. I'm not thinking, like, 'Today I'm going to dress like a woman.' I'm not even thinking about that. I'm just thinking, 'I want to wear this today; I want to be this today.'”
“I don't feel like I make sense in the world. I don't feel like I look right. I don't feel like I act right or do right. It's very frustrating to me that I just walk around with this all the time.”
“I think all gay men are used to people saying no to them, to people not giving them choices.”
“I started writing songs later in life because I just couldn't commit to it before.”
“My kitchen witch hangs above the sink in my kitchen. Some people think it's specifically so that you don't burn food when you cook, but I like to think that it's warding off evil spirits and bad things in general.”
“Everything I do is rebellious. Sometimes even against myself.”
“I wanna be bad sometimes - I wanna rip everything apart, -but it comes on less and less. Doing all this music stuff is very good for it.”
“I was really scared of the devil growing up: I was convinced I was going to be possessed.”
“I don't think I've actually ever had cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. I've had the Steak Diane. I don't like cheesecake!”
“I don't dislike 'It' or 'Stranger Things,' but I'm just not as super into it, because, like, I've seen 'E.T.' a lot. And I've watched 'The Goonies.'”
“I went off at a person who threw a plastic thing at one of my shows once. After I shamed them, I realised it was a little lipstick and felt bad for days.”
“Our house was cluttered with little charms, thoughtfully placed. There were all kinds of little things going on. Like, my mom made a lampshade out of a picture of our family, but if you look closely, there's a baby Jesus that she cut up and put just above all of us.”
“I originally thought I'd grow up to be a woman. I didn't question that when I was little.”
“I do not work out regularly, but I do dance so much and jump around so much on stage, and I do it every day, so I feel like that's my exercise.”
“I'm personally not a very contact-y person; I just let my phone die and don't turn it on for a couple of days.”
“Loved 'Get Out,' super good from start to finish. I mean, it had everything you'd want in a movie. It was funny, scary, and it wasn't stupid. It was a smart movie but not in a fussy way. It was so good.”
“I'm pretty sure I would have managed to over-share no matter what time period I was born in. It's a family thing, too.”
