In elementary and high school, I never considered acting as a profession.

Mostly, though, college was me trying to look cooler than I was. There were definitely some Carhartt jeans and backward kangol caps in my repertoire.

You can't be an openly gay movie star. You can't be an openly gay pop star, really - minus Ricky Martin.

I know my mom said as early as she can remember letting me watch TV, my one treat a week when I was like 6 was to stay up and watch 'Saturday Night Live.'

For the most part, there's so much of me in my characters.

I have a lot of girl friends who are very adept at making friends, and guys are just not.
