When you hear my music and you feel the emotion, it's real. When you see me in a film and you see a tear, it's real.

When other people reject positive changes you make for yourself, there is always some nerve to get to the root of in those other people.

The key thing is figuring out what your issues are, and it's really never about the food. You have to be real and honest with yourself. I had to stop and look and ask myself, ‘Why do I want this? What is the real reason?’ At times it was comfort food like chocolate. I love chocolate and I realized it relaxes me, so when you acknowledge what the issue is, you can control it better.

I try to dress a little casual before my photo-shoots. I can be comfortable before I go into my... transition.

I cook all my meals at home.

Permanent weight loss doesn’t come with an on and off switch. It is not something you do for a little while and think it is going to change your body.

God always works through people.
