When you're doing what you love, it's not exhausting at all, actually. It's completely empowering and exhilarating.
I do 'sissy with a heart of gold' really well.
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 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.
