But I just loved looking at the clothes of the '70s.

I'm an Air force Brat and I've lived all over the world and this country and there were people in my community who were gay - nurses, hairdressers, designers - people who just had a different way about themselves.

You can be on top of everything, and the next minute, you're going to be on the bottom.

I do a movie once every four years and they call it a comeback.

I've never considered myself to be beautiful, and I still don't.

I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.

This whole beauty thing is something I've never comprehended.

Me, sexy? I'm just plain ol' beans and rice.

My people were homesteading in Colorado before Emancipation.
