”I assumed that I would get the gay and lesbian audience — just by living my life out and open, so casually and comfortably. I did not know I would get this huge influx of straight women, mostly married, mostly with kids, middle-aged, who are living all over the country, middle parts of America where I’m from…. I’m was only used to having straight friends. All my friends were cheerleaders, and I had that environment, so I am used to that. Plus, I believe I have that right blend of masculinity and femininity. I love to shop. I love to go to spas. So, I can be your best girlfriend and I’m kind of a tomboy, too.”
