I voted for Obama. I was very happy when he won. But Obama hasn't really been able to effectively do anything that has made me... He hasn't helped the environment. He didn't close Guantanamo Bay. He went deeper into Afghanistan.
Then I read Little Women, and of course, like a lot of really young girls, I was very taken with Jo - Jo being the writer and the misfit.
I'm a worker. I do the work to communicate, and I want people to embrace it, and when they do I'm happy.
I was so unhealthy as a child, and at least three or four times my parents were told to get ready, that I would not make it.
I always enjoyed doing transgender songs.
I liked being on stage; I just didn't like the theatrical aspect of being in front of people.
