“I was in Palm Springs in a very private pool. My boyfriend and I were out there doing a fundraiser and it was a very secluded spot and we didn’t see any helicopters, so we went into the pool.”
“The guy who’s now the governor of Alaska, because I miss Sarah Palin.”
“Oh, easy: The ability to eat as much as I want and not gain weight.”
“I love being gay. I love gay people. How can I say this without offending everyone else, I think we’re better than other people. I think we are smarter. I think we are more talented. I think we are more aware. I think we make better friends. I think we make better lovers. I think we’re more tuned into what’s happening, tuned into the moment, tuned into our emotions, and other people’s emotions. Yes, I think that gay people are better than other people. I think the only thing we are not so good at is fighting back.”
“Some of my favorite studies to blip across the news wires are always the ones that talk about adding years to your life, about how modifying this or that aspect of your diet or health regimen will either add or subtract a year, two years, a decade to/from your time on this pale blue dot. I don’t quite get it. Are we really enthralled by such information? Is anyone thrilled at the rather obvious idea that if you stop snarfing a family-sized bag of neon-orange nuclear Doritos every damn day, you will die at a ripe old age of 92 instead of a sickly and pallid 89? Should we not be discussing the only thing that really matters: how you live and feel in this very moment, the one right here and now?”
“I don’t call what I do outing, I call it reporting—and I’d never report on the private life of a private person. Celebrities, politicians and professional athletes, on the other hand, made a choice to live their lives in the public eye for their careers. They need to be prepared for the public talking about their private life.”
“(Being Perez Hilton) makes getting laid hard, and I’m a big gay! I like getting my dick sucked just as much as any other gay. In real life, I’m not as loud, crazy and obnoxious as Perez is. In real life, I’m actually fucking boring. All I do is work and when I’m not working I go over to my friend’s house and we play games, I go to concerts. That’s all I do.”
“Marriage equality has nothing to do with gay marriage ... and everything to do with a lot of people in America thinking that being gay is bad, abnormal, sinful and not worthy of equal rights.”
