When I was younger, I did what I now call 'extreme singing.' I could do this thing where I would sing really high. I can't really do that anymore, at my age. My voice has shifted. It's changed.
I do 'sissy with a heart of gold' really well.
I always said if I played a drag queen, I'd want to create a template with the realness they talk about in 'Paris Is Burning.'
My truth is I am gay and out, and if I can't do that in my music, then I don't need it. Fortunately, I do feel like there is a movement against homophobia, and I hope to be part of that.
I'm trying to embrace social media because it gives artists a little more power than we've had in the past.
There's this misconception that I've been turning down roles. It's just not true. The reality is, there was nothing for me to do, nobody was calling, the phone wasn't ringing.
