It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.

Honestly, I would not advise any actor necessarily, if he was really thinking of his career, to come out.

I have nothing to complain about.. except maybe people wondering if a queen like me can be butch-it-up enough to play a convincing straight man.

Being gay and being a woman has one big thing in common, which is that we both become invisible after the age of 42. Who wants a gay 50-year-old? No one, let me tell you.

The thing about lying is, it is quite exhausting - you have to remember a lot.

I think it's fun playing a part that lots of other people have played, in a way.

The interesting thing about Sherlock is that he is himself a reflection of that very English duality. As a drug addict, he is a criminal. But he is also a crime fighter. That makes him an extremely potent character to personify the hypocrisy of a culture that is both moralistic and corrupt.
