My grandparents actually, whenever they got the chance, took me to Broadway, but that started when I was in high school, because that's when I realized...

I was told at first that being different was a bad thing. Everywhere I went, it was just, 'You're too different'... And it turned out that being different was the best thing that ever happened to my career. It is why people travel to my shows. It's why people want to hear my story and buy my book.
