If you do something and it goes wrong, you learn from it and you move on.

My first professional job was actually at a place called Opryland USA, which no longer exists, but I've been performing since I was a kid.

I don't think nudity is a bad thing, I don't think people should be embarrassed about their bodies, and I don't mind whipping it out.

I find with television, you have to play personality, whereas onstage, everyone talks about "the character," and what you do. It's a very different thing, because stage is much bigger, but on television, for things to come across to the public, I think you have to play a bit of your personality.

I don't call myself an actor, I call myself an entertainer, because I don't just do one thing.

I’m an openly gay man playing an omnisexual hero, who is loved on both sides of the Atlantic. How could I not be proud of that?

You have to do bad things in order to become a hero. You have to make sacrifices.
