I am a woman of theatre, I'm a librarian of theatre and I love all different kinds of music and all different kinds of expressions.

I love her. My piano. play the sh*t outta her.

I never intended for the Monster Ball to be a religious experience, it just became one.

I got a job when I was 15 because my allowance was about $20 a week which in New York was impossible. So I used to waitress across the street from where I grew up.

Don't you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can't be exactly who you are.

I went to see 'Phantom of the Opera' with my grandma and my mom when I was very little. The stage, the voice, the music?... Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has been a massive inspiration to me for some time - the storytelling, that deliciously somber undertone in his music.

I don't see myself as ever being like anybody else.
