“I am gay, and I’m very comfortable with it.”

I think theatricality is just one way of performing. I don’t think it’s a better way or the way, but it’s my way.

The album feels like a new era for me — emotionally, lyrically, sonically. It feels fresh, it feels new. It’s still me.

I’m proud of my sexuality.

I think Lady Gaga is great and is changing pop music and bringing back a certain rock ‘n’ roll spirit, swagger to the game.

My dad is a Deadhead, my mom’s a Jewish-American princess from Jersey.

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 like ‘Rocky Horror.’

The way I look at it is everybody should have the right to get married, if they so choose

I was really beating myself up about performances and how I looked and this and that.

It gets better. It seems hard, you know, I think being different is always gonna be a tough climb.

I have crushes on women all the time. I don’t have intimate relationships with them, but I find women beautiful.

And ah, you know, something about the beat was really cool, and Madonna, visually, was on TV all the time and I thought she was just so beautiful.

If something doesn’t look right, throw some glitter on it.

You are so much more, than your orientation, you know it and I know it.

I listen to crazy, robust rock music where they sing their faces off, and soul music, which can be similar.

When I was kid, I remember playing ‘Vogue’ by Madonna over and over and over again.
