I've never been attracted to women sexually and I wanted romance.

If you find yourself in a relationship or even a friendship with someone who's conflicted with their gender identity, just be kind. This is not a life choice. This is something that you are born with. This is like being born with a gene for being tall, short, black, white, gay, straight - it's not a choice.

I think we do people a great disservice by putting them on a pedestal and not allowing them to be human.

It's so important to just be kind to one another because we aren't walking in that other person's shoes.

I grew up very conservatively and traditionally. I wanted to save myself for marriage.

When I was with Elvis, I used to remind myself there's Elvis on the marquee and then there's the living, breathing Elvis.

And as such, we need to be empathetic and understanding.

I think that happens to a lot of people who find themselves thrust into the spotlight and becoming famous before they recognize what's happening to them. Life becomes a little distorted for them.

I call myself out on my mistakes, but in telling the truth, sometimes it stings a little.
