On Tilted
The way you guys use the word “Tilted” is the way I’ve used the word “weird” for a long time. “Weird” is the word someone uses when they’re referring to someone doing something that they wouldn’t. Every person that you and I look up to are weird. Legends like Prince or Michael Jackson are the epitome of weird. As far as I’m concerned weird is a compliment. My view and way of thinking is different than yours. That should be celebrated.

On Creativity
Art is a reflection of life. Your right brain gives you the power to digest your life in an easier way. It gives you the power to share your story with others in a way that you want it to be presented. Give 30 people the same creative assignment… draw a picture of a cloud. You’re going to get 30 unique clouds. No one’s art is the same because no one’s creative mind is quite the same. Everyone has something to contribute.

On Friendship
Friendship to me is sacred. Doing what I do, to know there are people who will drop everything to be there for you is reassuring to say the least, and being that person for them is the best feeling. Friends becoming family is a special thing. My two best friends come to almost all of my family functions. Thanksgiving, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day… it’s all love.

On Sexual Fluidity
It’s real. It was real before it was accepted here. It’s real even though it hasn’t been accepted everywhere. And it’s beautiful. So many people in my life have been with so many different types of people. And so many of them have found happiness in so many different places. Looking forward to our generation leading the charge to a more accepting society.
On Cultural Diversity
Diversity is one of the greatest forces of love. We are all born open minded and when a child is around all skin tones and cultures, they always grow more accepting. Representation in my line of work is important. Representation in positions of power is important. When people see more than one color, both where they find entertainment and in their lives, their way of thinking and views towards others comes from a different place.

On Family
The people who sculpt you. The people who sacrifice every day for you. Who take pieces of themselves and place them with you. Family is the most important thing in my life. People ask me why I haven’t moved out of my childhood home yet… that’s your answer right there.
