The best part is still ahead of me - I haven't experienced my 'good old days' yet.

When I was larger, people said I was fat. Now that I've lost weight, they say I died.

All through school, I was losing hundreds of pounds in school, so that's a journey - that's an old journey. I'm tired of that. I know that road.

The whole period has taught me that I enjoy being part of an ensemble rather than just a front man. Don't get me wrong - I enjoy that too, but I get more enjoyment out of really listening to everyone.

My feeling for reality TV isn't ironic, guilty, or apologetic. Reality TV is one of the few remaining modes of popular entertainment in which characterization is permitted as plot.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.
