In Mississippi, you don’t admit that you’re gay. It’s just an awkward thing down South, which is sad.

I am fortunate enough with my career that I can speak out to the masses and hopefully be a part of initiating change.

I've definitely, you know, been with women. And I've had great relationships with them where I was definitely in love. It's just I grew to a point where deep inside I knew that I could never truly have a relationship with a woman. I don't know if they ever suspected. It was never brought up.

In my older age, I've learned to take things slower, because I used to be that total-fall-in-love-after-a-day guy.

The gay community is very fickle. And I know because I'm part of it and I see it every day.

I'm a family guy, so I would love to have a family; I would love to find that perfect person to have a family with.

I have the worst memory in the world. I can remember some of my dreams, but later that day, i'll forget them.
