No, I've never truly been a minister.

I tried to look presentable for a show, but not for sexual attraction. It was strictly for show business.

I only wore makeup when I went onstage.

I don't think that you have to be effeminate to be sensitive.

I think they saw me as something like a deliverer, a way out. My means of expression, my music, was a way in which a lot of people wished they could express themselves and couldn't.

I decided to come back and teach goodness in this business. To teach love, because music is the universal language. We are God's bouquet, and through music we become one.

I got fame and fortune, and I lost my sense of reasoning.
