“There’s always gonna be people that are scared of it. But at the end of the day you give those bullies, those people, that are so ignorant, if you give them the power to affect you, you’re letting them win”

If sexy scares you, don’t listen to my music.

I’m proud of my sexuality. I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.

There are female artists I can look at that I find more in common with than the male artists, because they’re blending the pop, dance and theatricality… but currently there aren’t a lot of guys who go there.

People come up, and say hi and they enjoy your work.

I think the British audience might be more open-minded with some of my imagery and weird choices.

I think sometimes we’re meant to do something but things aren’t lined up correctly.

So whoever wants to come and get part of that lifestyle, we accept anybody.

Female performers have been doing this for years – pushing the envelope about sexuality – and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out.

I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay.

Obviously when you are doing a recording, things aren’t gonna translate as over-the-top.

I definitely have my opinions that I’m very vocal about and I’m not afraid to put them out there.

My first album was completed in three months.

That become celebrities or become really successful in what they do because they believe in who they are.

I’m so happy to be in a committed relationship.

I’m a freak in the fondest way possible.

lf. I wasn’t going to try too hard to conform, and I knew that it could possibly not work out.

You always have to remember that bullies want to bring you down because you have something that they admire.

My dad always told me to stand up to bullies, and Bill O’Reilly is kind of a bully, and he’s the kind of kid who hits other kids on the playground.

There’s always gonna be people that are scared of it. But at the end of the day you give those bullies, those people, that are so ignorant, if you give them the power to affect you, you’re letting them win.
