“So pretty much, to sum it up, if you can freak someone out and bring that kind of emotion out of somebody with a song, you’re doing something right.”

I think the responsibility of pop stars is to liberate the masses. In that everyone can be whatever they wanna be.

My mother was always supportive.

I need to be able to explain myself in context.

I’ve been kind of toying around with the bi thing in my head. I wouldn’t ever give myself the label ‘bisexual,’ but bi-curious? Yea.

I think, for the majority of my twenties, I was always so concerned with what I didn’t have, or what I still wanted.

I knew that it was my only shot to be taken seriously in the recording industry, because it’s fast and broad.

I started to realize I wasn’t like every other boy.

Pop is a little bit theatrical. That’s the whole vibe. That’s the point – is that it’s great music, great melodies, great hooks. But, on top of it, it’s a presentation. There’s a showmanship about it. And that’s why I wanted to be a pop star.

I’m not scared at all… Of the cracks in the crystal ball.

Yeah, I think speculation keeps things really interesting.

Being who you are is a lot easier than faking it.

I don’t like to look typical.

I think you kind of have to put yourself out there.

I never really listen to what people say. My thing is that my favorite artists are artists that are theatrical.

The best way to be loved, is to love yourself.

Ive only dressed in drag three or four times.

Anything with no head is dead, and anything with two heads is a freak.

I’m a freak in the fondest way possible.

I’m a machine freak. I just love it when you can get a big ol’ steel machine to do the most that it’s capable of doing.

I am a workout freak.

I’m a historian, and that freaks me out.

Your departure is no joke it freaks me out every time you leave for the airport.

Technology still freaks me out a bit.

I’ve met every freak in the business.
