I have not lived so abundantly, full of family, full of continuity and history.

I wasn't playing a drag queen - I was playing an extraordinary performer.

But I really want to be an artist, so therefore I have to live a little bit like a monk.

An extraordinary diva would never sit by herself.

I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.

But as a woman, I really started feeling vulnerable on the set, and I really felt that it was important that I should not be open for invitation or making myself look as though I was waiting for something.

I'm not involved with the female world.
