You can't really necessarily explain what being on a reality show is like until it's happening to you.

It's easy to make a reality show that's sensational but it's more challenging to make a reality show that's got a lot of heart and integrity and still keeps you enthralled and makes you want to keep watching.

On 'Love Island' you're trying to win the prize money and stay together; on 'The Bi Life,' the winner is the one that finds love.

My style of drag has always been a little bit more moderate.

I think it's really cool that 'Drag Race' has created this space where so many different kinds of people can come together and socialise and have fun on equal terms.

The gay community has had a sometimes tumultuous relationship with non-queer people coming to their shows because it was tourism, like using the queer spaces as a form of comic relief or entertainment.

Drag is more like a license to be what you want. But you don't need drag to do that.

I love being Courtney, but it almost feels like something different to drag for me - it's a part of me, it's not a parody, it's a form of expression for me, a way to give my feminine and masculine sides an outlet.

I think it's really important to acknowledge that gay men and straight men can be friends.

I'm a big fan of Stormzy.

Pole dancing is way harder than it looks.

I am a Madonna fan.

Call me old fashioned, but I love songs that end. As a songwriter, I feel like you put a fade out when you can't work out how to end a song.

So many reactions in our lives are based on what happened to us when we were younger.

It's so easy to be polarised and yell from different sides of the room about certain subjects, but I think it's so much better to walk into the middle and have a conversation to drive change forward.

I acknowledge that I'm really fortunate to have found pockets of people all through my life who've accepted me.

I think that gay men in particular need to just listen to bisexual people and believe them when they say they're attracted to different genders.

Because bisexual people almost have a foot in the gay and the straight world, their friends can misunderstand them too. Like if a bisexual man starts dating another man, people are like 'Ah, he's gay,' but you know, bisexual people remain bisexual, and their attractions can change and flux over time.

Normally when you go to a queer space the people often look like you, they are the same age as you and so on, but at Mardi Gras and at queer events in general, everybody is different, everybody comes together. And that is what I love about Pride and Mardi Gras and those sort of events.

I genuinely had always thought, this sounds dumb, I always thought that 'RuPaul's Drag Race' was shot in the basement of RuPaul's house.

I think my first actual real job was a door-to-doors salesperson for Foxtel, a cable TV company, and that lasted a couple of weeks because I got held, like I wouldn't say at swordpoint, but I was kept in someone's house against my will and she did have a sword and was sort of brandishing it.

People care about what I have to say now, and they want to hear it, and that's one of the greatest gifts you can be given.

It's detrimental not to support marriage equality, even just on a financial level.

I had post-traumatic stress from 'Drag Race' a little bit.
