“I’m not sure if I consider myself a drag queen anymore. Maybe years ago! It’s taken on a new face. I do love to dress up, but for the world I have to say I’m an artist, because sometimes I don’t even wear a dress. I just want to sing. With Manfred Thierry Mugler, we went with the concept of ‘Z chromosome’; not he nor she but Z, the last letter of the alphabet. I don’t consider myself X or Y. My job is to entertain. I was engineered to perform, to make babies — my art is my child!” – Joey Arias

“My music is definitely very personal. The songs are about moments, snapshots of everyday life, and about having one’s say, or at least feeling like one has had one’s say. I feel it’s simply a way for me to function in a world where I have never felt terribly at home.” – John Grant
