I think it was August or September 2010 when I saw the Monster Ball in Las Vegas.

I had never been more scared, confused, or self-conscious in my life, and I didn’t like who I was, and I wanted to be somebody else.

And when it got to this point in the concert, I may or may not have cried because I this was the exact moment that all changed.

Maybe you don’t like her music or her personality, maybe you feel like she’s exploiting the LGBT community for attention. But you can’t deny that she’s an inspiration for those who had given up hope.

And the world is better for it. I mean, come on. If I had given up on myself, the world would be short one FAB ASS motha fucka. I’m a fucking boss and y’all niggas would be missing out without me.
