Anybody who really knows about the TV business knows that it would be impossible to just march in one day and say to your colleagues and bosses, 'Oh yes, I'm hosting my own show.'

I love San Francisco so much. I call it the Emerald City and have been coming here since 1992. I have a few old friends that live here, and my aunt and uncle live in Oakland. I think it's a magical city - it's big, sexy and very 'cosmo' with a small-town feel.

I've been nominated for 12 Emmys, and we won - for 'Top Chef' - the only time I didn't go.

When in doubt, I go to the phones a lot because it adds a new dimension and a new energy. It kind of takes me out of the equation if I feel like I irritated them or they aren't into the experience.

I will be the 43-year-old guy in the jumpsuit. In my estimation and my image of myself is that I am 23 and can get away with it. If I didn't have the show, I would be in one right now. It would be denim, but I love a terry.

The thing that's fun about the 'Housewives' is talking to your friends about it.

I am so proud of 'Top Chef' - I think it's got great cred.

I haven't fully moved over to the iPad. At any given time, I have about four DVDs in my pocket. I'm constantly screening 'Top Chef,' 'Housewives,' and all the other shows we have in development, racing to meet a deadline. So I pretty much bring my laptop everywhere.

If you look at the people who make up the Bravo landscape from Jeff Lewis to Rachel Zoe and Padma Lakshmi and Tabatha Coffey and the 'Millionaire Matchmaker,' these are very strong personalities that people love to watch and that you... don't see anywhere else.

People don't get drafted into being housewives. It's a voluntary experience, so people are putting themselves into this situation voluntarily.

I ran into Woody Allen shooting a movie on my block. I can't believe this is my life!

You know, 'Project Runway' was a really special show, and we had a great five seasons with it. We loved that show, and we loved the stories that it brought to Bravo and the creativity. And it was a magic five seasons.

I love getting into restaurants and getting free stuff - that part of fame I definitely enjoy!

I absolutely love low-key restaurants.

If you look at my life before I went into television, the struggle I went through coming out would be surprising to most people, given how comfortable and how out I am being the only late-night gay talk-show host.

I would ask Donald Trump why every single person in his cabinet has spoken out publicly - and his vice president - against gay rights, and he's never said anything about that.
