People at shows have told me that they’ve shown my videos to their parents and families to help them come out of the closet. It’s very inspiring that comedy can do that and can help people cope with everyday life and challenges through humor.
I have so much hate that it has turned into love.
I am a big ‘Ellen’ fan. I have been one for quite a long time now. I used to do the local news talk shows with her in San Francisco, when we were both still kids.
I can’t drag myself away from ‘Final Cut Pro.’ It is a digital video editing system. I am obsessed with it, but I am always away from home, and I can’t use it.
I have learned to love that which is meant to harm me, so that I can stand in the way of those who are less strong. I can take the bullets for those who aren’t able to.
Korean children get a lot of fuss made over them, I guess because life was tough in the old country, and it was a big deal if you survived. There’s a big party thrown when you are 100 days old, followed by another when you make it to one whole year.
Snooki is really beautiful and looks quite like Elizabeth Taylor in ‘Cleopatra.’ She has the same bone structure. I’m kind of obsessed with ‘Jersey Shore.’ People don’t give them enough credit for how entertaining they are.
Try to put your happiness before anyone else’s, because you may never have done so in your entire life, if you really think about it, if you are really honest with yourself.
When it comes to children, my mom doesn’t believe in borders. She loves all children, and that’s a good example of mothering the world. I need to do that, but before I can, I need to get over my fear of kids in the first place.
Sexual fulfillment goals, to make them happen, you have to work on them as a project. I don’t think it’s a bad thing.
I don’t think I’m gay. I don’t think I’m straight. I think I’m just slutty. Where’s my parade?
Comedians and people in general have a cultural right to talk about their own culture and race.
Often something that is in bad taste or considered to be in bad taste is something that’s just very true but that people are unwilling to discuss or comment on.
I think white people like to tell Asian people how they should feel about race because they’re too scared to tell black people.
It’s always considered bad taste to comment on a tragedy right when it’s happening, but I love when something is considered too soon to talk about because then you can blast past that social censorship to get into something real.
I’m a huge fan of the people and things that are considered the epitomes of tastelessness – things like drag and raunchy comedy.
I am always writing no matter what I am doing and no matter what it is for.
I don’t want to bring myself down to place where there are hard and fast rules. In general I try to be compassionate, but that is dependent on the moment ultimately.
I loved everything. I read everything. Art and poetry and literature and trash and sci fi. I didn’t know what I would become yet and I needed to read to figure it out.
I’m always too fat. And I always look terrible. But I love the theater of the red carpet.
