I couldn't wait until I grew up. I used to look at my mom's stockings and put them on with her high heels and mess with my hair.

My mom grew up in Kansas, my dad in Indiana. They had boring childhoods.

My mom was a dancer, my dad's a singer and I've always had that kind of music in my life.

My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I'm not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role, but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.

My mom sent me to regular high school because she wanted me to have that experience and not say that I missed out, but I didn't like it at all. I'm more comfortable in the world that I'm in, I grew up in it so when I get around normal kids in regular high school I don't know what to do. I feel more secure in an adult environment.
