I'm not gonna worry about what people think about me. I'm too busy. I don't give a hoot.

I don't know many people who don't have somebody in their family who's a part of the gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgender community. It's not like they're aliens or outsiders. This is family.

If you saw me without makeup, you wouldn't recognize me.

I have a wig for when I go outside among the regular folks, so they don't feel uncomfortable because I have a Day-Glo color somewhere in my hair.

You know, I've been playing with my hair color ever since I was nine.

My career never went like anyone else’s, so I never followed anyone.

You know, I do speak the Queens English. It's just the wrong Queens that's all. It's over the 59th Street Bridge. It's not over the Atlantic Ocean.
