I already had the sense that I was someone who was more spiritual than specifically religious. ... I'm really interested in those things that are more far-reaching than culture, nationality, race, religion.

There's nothing interesting about looking perfect.

The most embarrassing one is that I had no idea - and please excuse me - that you guys call a condom a rubber. My version of a rubber is an eraser. I've done that - very loudly asked for a rubber and people have given me strange looks. That was embarrassing!

My friends are all really nice about my fame, they're just curious really, they ask lots of questions.

Obviously, I'm recognized on the street and I am away from home a lot more and, let's face it, I have an action figure of myself!

If I had it my way, I would have just kept it short forever. Of course, men like long hair. There's no two ways about it. The majority of the boys around me were like, 'Why did you do that? That's such an error.' And I was like, 'Well, honestly, I don't really care what you think!' I've never felt so confident as I did with short hair - I felt really good in my own skin.

Most people are really nice but some stare, like you're some kind of zoo exhibit and not a real person with real feelings.
