I was kind of a wild child. I wasn't taught the niceties of life.

I want the best product for my audience, and if I don't care 100%, who will? It's my name, my likeness that goes out there.

I worked in a Chinese restaurant.

I knew that with a mouth like mine, I just hadda be a star or something.

You know, for me, the realization that two people should have the right to form a sacred union regardless of their gender was strengthened when I saw a performance of the play The Normal Heart in 1985.
