#1 I have always had a fascination with Johnny Mathis, a legendary singer who is almost never mentioned in gossip columns. I wish I were Johnny Mathis, and I believe that we all secretly idolize our imagined opposites, yearning to become the role models for others we know we could never be for ourselves.
#2 I had always felt nuts, not romantic. I was too angry to be smooth. I was happily guilty to yearn for virtue. I had always followed the careers of Clarabell and Princess Summerfall Winterspring, hoping that I could someday have an extreme career in show business.
#3 I wrote a letter to Johnny Mathis explaining why I wanted to meet him. I didn’t want to come to him with any agenda, sexual or racial, and I wasn’t. My Johnny Mathis lunacy was way beyond that anyway.
#4 Johnny Mathis, the famous singer, was born in San Francisco in 1938. He was embarrassed around jazz people to be known for romantic music, and he wanted to be a jazz legend. He was a millionaire at twenty years old, but he never wanted to be anything but a good singer.

I have been copying Margaret Hamilton my whole life, and I am proud to admit it. The Wicked Witch of the West, the jolie laide heroine of every bad little boy’s and girl’s dream of notoriety and style, inspired my lifetime obsession with wearing weirdly striped socks.
#6
I have always been up-front about my sexuality, even though Mink Stole today says she didn’t even know I was gay for a long time. I understand Hollywood royalty’s reticence about revealing anything personal.
#7
I always thought that Tom Cruise
