When I came out, I said, 'I'm going to be a proud gay artist.' I'm not going to be Melissa Etheridge. But she's a goddess!

When I came out, I told my stepmother Gladys, and she just said she had known for years and was glad I wasn't lying anymore.

I came out of my mum's stomach going, 'I want to be an actor!'

I came out to L.A. to be a songwriter and not an artist, and I'm so excited because I always secretly wanted to be an artist.

Dad said that he was prouder of me than he'd ever been when I came out.

I came out around 25 publicly.
