I don't think anyone wants to be gay.

All these people I interview are worth ten times what I'm worth.

Because society places a value on masculinity, gay men aspire to it. If you go to a gay club and the doorman says, 'You do realise this is a gay club, don't you lads?' you get all excited because you think, 'Wow, he thought I was straight!'

Forty freaked me out. I didn't see it coming. My life was in a state of chaos - I was moving jobs and moving house - and it just hit me like a ton of bricks.

You don't want money to make you a social freak where you can only hang out with rich people.

Where I get bored is when I show up for a shoot and they want me to wear a feather boa. Too obvious a thing for a poof on the telly to do.

I'd like to retire at 50 but I don't want to sell papers in the middle of London on a Zimmer.
