Sometimes if you want to achieve something great, there will be curveballs. You just have to dodge them every once in a while.

Hollywood is so fake and people need to realize that people are just people, and you, too, don't need to be born into something or have money or have whatever product someone is hawking on you.

My mother is very emotional as well, but my dad is more of the guts of the family. He was the main preacher, so he kind of had this little Pentecostal flair, but they are born-again.

I am a gay activist and I say that proudly. I voted no on Prop 8.

Everybody wants to have a commentary on my life, like they are actually living it. Cool, comment all you want but I'm the one that's living it.

Sometimes, you promise someone forever, but it doesn't work that way.

I really like to look like a history book. I can look 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I'll pull that '80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings.
