It's really kind of a luxury for an actor to have the opportunity to show such different types of characters. I actually left 'Cowboys & Aliens' and went straight into 'The Change-Up.' It was kind of a funny change of pace.

When I have really blonde hair, I usually go for a more natural look, wearing way less makeup.

I consider my education to be the first 10 years of my career.

In human years I am 29. In actress years I'm the ripe, promising age of 18 to 35. That's how it works here in Hollyweird.

I love kids with a passion I usually reserve for hot cheese, miniature chairs, and Prince concerts, but I feel no stress to reproduce simply because of a fear of withering eggs.

In a relationship I'm a very loving person, emotional and sensitive.

Documentaries are a powerful and effective way of bridging the gap between worlds, breaking through to new audiences that wouldn't otherwise be engaged - in essence, not preaching to the choir.

In my work in Haiti, I've seen the hugely positive effects that happen when people come together to build something in the middle of the most desperate situations.

I do not tweeze my eyebrows. I've been letting them grow out for years. I try to fill them in wherever nature has abandoned me.

If I could play drums like Patrick Carney or Taylor Hawkins, I'd be a really happy person.

I'm still a student of fashion, but I like hooking up with the people that really know how to make cool clothes.

A good litmus test is that you should be comfortable with your significant other being present when you hang out with your friend.

I have a great pack of female friends, but I also have a lot of guy friends. I believe that platonic relationship is entirely possible.

Seeing the energy of 'SNL' made me want to be a part of it. If that was a job, I thought, that was the job I wanted. That was my plan. Comedy.

You're going to change as you grow older, and that messes up a lot of relationships.

If a woman feels anchored to a man's plans, she may start to resent him for the fun she's worried she's missing.

It's so important to have that independence. You know it yourself: Everyone needs evenings of their own.

I tend to go with a daytime look, pretty natural, but I always fill in my eyebrows - I hate if I leave the gym and my eyebrows aren't done; I'm just very uncomfortable with myself.

Power tends to get confused with repression.

You really just have to love the process. I can't tell you the amount of film sets I've been on where people are talking about Oscars in the middle of the production. It happens all the time.

I think the reason I've been so committed to advocacy is because I see so many people in pain.

My lyrics are about same-sex relationships, because that's who I am. It was important to me that I felt comfortable expressing myself.

I feel sorry for straight people.

I love TLC and Aaliyah and all those early-millennial R&B singers.

I think everyone knows what it is like being in love. It's never a smooth thing. Whether you are happily together or not.

I like how it presented this contradiction because traditionally gay people have been shut out from the church, so 'Sanctify' was claiming a bit of that back and saying, 'My sexuality is holy.'

I was never diagnosed with an eating disorder but I definitely had a difficult relationship with food.

Let's let our men be happy, be sad, be trans, be questioning, be bisexual, be non-conforming, be feminine, be masculine!

I'm a real left-winger. I fancy Jeremy Corbyn!

Justin Tranter is an incredible queer voice in pop music and he's writing for Justin Bieber: it's genius.

School was like a hostile place. I just hated being at school. I think some people really thrive in that environment. I was a good student, but I just didn't enjoy school. I found it really tough.

When I was younger I thought that if you were famous and successful, it would mean that you just felt happy all the time. That you would become, like, this mystical creature that people just adored. And so you would adore yourself.

I think the word 'twink' is pejorative. There's something endemic about the gay community where we praise masculinity more than anything else.

I was a fan of Belle and Sebastian. I didn't really know a lot of their music - I only knew the kind of bigger songs because I had a friend, when I was younger, who was really into them. But I have always really respected Belle and Sebastian for what they are, what they do. Yeah, they're just great.

If you're making something tangible, whether it's clothing, a song, a piece of art... when you create something that's outside of yourself you take a bit of the pain and it's released, you let it out a little bit. That's my Oprah Winfrey moment.

What's great about being gay is that you can celebrate all types of sexualities, because we understand that being queer means you might also be gender nonconforming or bi or whatever.

My mum's super Labour, and my gran. We all love Jeremy Corbyn in the family. Those are very deep roots and I feel like I could never not vote for Labour. Or I could never vote for the Tories because of that.

I love being alone.

You can't have a nuanced debate on Twitter, it's just people shouting.

I just listen to true-crime podcasts, do some weights and pretend I know what I'm doing.

I think music can be therapeutic and a really positive thing, but that seeing a therapist is the best form of therapy you can get.

The first artist I really loved was Stevie Wonder. That opened the doors to other soul singers like Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin.

For a long time - when we first started getting a much higher level of attention - I really struggled with feeling like I was letting people down. Because when you do a show, there are, like, a hundred fans waiting to see you afterwards, and sometimes you can't see them.

There was just this stage where I realised that people were listening to what I was saying and I could actually say something I believe in and, like... why wasn't I doing that? It's not because I think I have a responsibility as a pop star or whatever; it's because I think I have a responsibility as a human being.

I've done bits of writing for other people but when I'm writing music as Years & Years, I'm using my life and my stories and my experiences. I want it to be authentic and real but also to work as a pop song - I never want to just put in a cheesy line.

I've been writing a lot of songs about my personal life and identity. That can be a real healing process.

I don't know if there's ever a point where you go, 'Oh, I'm successful now. Look at all this great stuff I've done,' because I don't think it can be tangible in that way.

I get trolled. The usual stuff - sometimes it's homophobic, like gay hate.

Well, I moved around quite a lot so I was born in Yorkshire and then I moved to Blackpool, which is like North England.

We are traumatized by growing up in a world that doesn't really accept us. Obviously, we've made great leaps and bounds, but I think there's a tendency to force a narrative onto queer people that once you come out... you have to be really happy and really successful and proud all the time.
