The idea that I would ever end up on David Letterman or Jay Leno is horrifying. I am such a freak in comparison to most other twenty-five-year-old guys. I have no idea what other people are thinking. I’m not really in touch.

I tried to be someone else, but nothing seemed to change. I know now, this is who I really am inside. I've finally found myself, fighting for a chance. I know now, this is who I really am.

It's okay to stand on your own two feet and to be different, to be yourself.

It's not only music. It's not only art. It's a community. It's a sense of having a place to belong.

You know you’re really famous when there’s rumors about you being gay.

Thank God for the Italians, the most forgiving people of the world. And they sing so loud you can barely hear the music!

I live by the rule that you should follow your dreams…no matter what you do, you should follow your dreams
