My grandfather was a Pentecostal preacher. It was a sin to even pluck your eyebrows, and they thought it was a sin for me to be there looking like Jezebel.

I do have a lot of gays in my family now, but some will never come out.

I would never stoop so low as to be fashionable.

I have two favorite colors - white and yellow. White makes me feel light and airy. Yellow makes me happy.

I'm just a person; I like to experience whatever the feeling is and whatever I'm going through.

It's always great to perform at home in the good ol' U.S.A.

In fact, I bought our first family television with my own money, putting it on credit and then paying it off every week.
