The diet industry is making a lot of money selling us fad diets, nonfat foods full of chemicals, gym memberships, and pills while we lose a piece of our self-esteem every time we fail another diet or neglect to use the gym membership we could barely afford.

The most important thing for me was to never, ever, ever deny it. But I didn't really have the courage to talk about it. I was thinking, The people who need to know I'm gay know.

I'm really attracted to strong women. Let me rephrase that, I'm really attracted to strong female characters.

When I watched Ellen come out in '97, my jaw was on the floor. I thought, There are some people who break the doors down, hold them open, and some people who walk right through.

My sexuality is a part of me that I really like. But it's not the totality of me.

People might find me attractive, but it's also my job to prove that I can be intelligent.

You don't have to be emaciated or vomiting to be suffering. All people who live their lives on a diet are suffering.
