It Girl' is such a weird term. It implies I go to parties and drink champagne.

I want to be in 'Glee,' but I'm told I'm not famous enough to be a cameo yet.

I never get recognised here in London, which I like. Once a year, someone comes up to me and asks if I am 'so-and-so's niece' because they think they recognise me from somewhere. I like that.

For generations, even many otherwise decent white Southerners learned to despise black people.

We travel as seekers after answers we cannot find at home

Donna Summer would be remembered as a ground-breaking artist today even if she'd retired the day after she recorded 'I Feel Love' in 1977.

The late afternoon sunlight, warm as oil, sweet as childhood.
