If just one person, one child who is made to feel isolated, looks at me and sees that it is okay to be your own person and walk down your own path, then everything I have ever gone through will be worth it.

I feel like at the Olympics I gave the best performance of my life and I wasn't rewarded for that as an athlete. Yes, my fans and my mom were happy about it, but I didn't win that gold medal.

Don't bring a prop. It's almost like they were afraid nobody would know who they are.

Nothing shocks me anymore. I've embraced men in thongs, I've embraced women with padded bras. I mean, I can embrace Larry King saying 'fierce.'

You only live once. Life is a show

I'm a tough person. I wasn't afraid of other kids because I understood that someday they'd wash my car.

That makes me think of spandex-covered football players. It's not me. I'm in rhinestones and velvet, not spandex.
