That kid's long gone, and this old man is all that's left.

Mark TeixeiraI was the kid growing up who would play with G.I. Joes in a pink dress and then run off to play with my Barbies. It doesn't mean that I'm less girly, it just means that I have this other side of me. It's kinda cool to be a little bit of both, I think.
Adrianne PalickiI think there's a level at which you think that there's a reason that you're being singled out, that you're being chosen. As a kid, I was always mistaken for a girl. Before you reach that age where your sexuality starts to display itself, kids can look very androgynous, and I guess I leaned more toward the feminine.

When I got older and discovered paining, drawing and PhotoShop, I was able to do both simultaneously; I enjoy making both.
