Sports are a microcosm of society.

I would love to be a player today. I had the right personality for it.

I used to be told if I talked about my sexuality in any way that we wouldn't have a tennis tour.

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 you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.
