"(About the reason why the homosexual audience likes her) Because, deep down, I am also very gay. Not sexually speaking, of course, but in an introspective way, there is a humanity that truly unites us. It sounds cliché, I know, but all my closest friends, since before anyone suspected anything, are gay."
