No one should have to conform to some mythical concept of the ideal family.

I love road trips! My husband and I love that. We bought a truck with a bench seat so we could put the dog in the middle.

He (son Jason) doesn't see me as a (gay) icon, he sees me as his mother who touches his hair too much. No, I love being an icon to anybody. Equal rights, you know?

Success to me is having ten honeydew melons and eating only the top half of each slice.

It's very often the artist who gives a voice to the voiceless by speaking up when no one else will.

I worked in a Chinese restaurant.

I arrived in Hollywood without having my nose fixed, my teeth capped, or my name changed. That is very gratifying to me.
