Bowie's been a huge influence on me. I remember early on, my dad pulling out the 'Diamond Dogs' album, and the cover alone just grabbed my attention. I think I was probably around 12.

For me, one of the important things about keeping vocally healthy is warming up and making sure I'm aware where my voice is at, drinking lots of water and getting plenty of sleep, and just taking care of myself with exercise and eating healthy.

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

People want to talk about whether I have rock cred, whether I'm selling out, the theatricality, the gay stuff... Chill out! And just enjoy yourself.

No matter how much money, fame, and fortune you have, it doesn't mean sh** if it's not connected with love.

No escaping when I start, once I'm in I own your heart

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