I want to exude strength and intelligence.
From Portia de Rossi
People might find me attractive, but it's also my job to prove that I can be intelligent.
I want young people to see me and think you can be feminine and smart and successful, all at the same time.
The most important thing for me was to never, ever, ever deny it. But I didn't really have the courage to talk about it. I was thinking, The people who need to know I'm gay know.
I'm living by example by continuing on with my career and having a full, rich life, and I am incidentally gay.
I justified it in so many ways. I had a very, very long and difficult struggle with my sexuality.
I thought, I'm out in my life, that doesn't involve my public life.
I married him for a green card. We had a really great, caring relationship; it just obviously wasn't right for me.
I didn't choose the fact that I was gay, but I did choose whether to live my life as a gay woman-that was the terrifying thing for me. Especially being a gay actress.
I had a hell of a time convincing people I was gay - which was so annoying!
