I landed on Gay Pride and I couldn't believe my eyes! Not only were gay people real - I had only heard rumours - but they had parades. There were men covered in glitter bound together with furry handcuffs. I felt like I was in outer space, I honestly thought I had arrived at the happiest place on earth.

The bust of Colonel Sanders stands as a monument to cruelty and has no place in the Kentucky state Capitol.

There's no way I set out to be a certain kind of symbol - the way I dress is the way I am, the way I live my life.

My ideal relaxation is working on upholstry. I spend hours in junk shops buying furniture. I do all the upholstery work myself, and it's like therapy.

It was just the sort of yatch you'd expect a rock promoter to have. Mirrored ceilings, marble, Jacuzzis and leopard-skin everything, it made the merely vulgar seem commonplace.

It's nice when your boyfriend thinks you're beautiful.

I'm known for my handwritten notes.
