I knew that it was my only shot to be taken seriously in the recording industry, because it's fast and broad.

The biggest risk I've ever taken is going on American Idol and trying to be myself. I wasn't going to try too hard to conform, and I knew that it could possibly not work out.

I think the difficult thing is the transition between TV competition series and going into the actual music industry. There still seems to be a slight disconnect there.

I've only dressed in drag three or four times.

'Come out' is so funny to me because I've never been in.

We just knew broad themes.
