"I grew up in a clergyman's family. I was brought up on the basis of strict rules, as this implies Catholic upbringing. I visited the temple with my parents almost every day for prayers, and on Sundays sang in a church choir. However, I grew up and I, like any teenager, began to be interested in issues related to close relationships between lovers. And everything would have been nothing, had it not been for one fact: I was attracted to girls more than boys. I once kissed a girl, but when my parents found out, a scandal broke out. They decided to guide me to the true path through constant prayers. In this way, in their opinion, homosexuality was cured. After that, I was even sent to a camp where, in daily prayers, I had to beg for forgiveness from the Lord. "

"You know, after all that happened in my youth, I thought I was leper, but after I met other representatives of the LGBT community, I realized that I should not even think about it. Sexual relations are not a black and white dress, they can be diverse and this is their distinctive feature. My first real sexual experience with a woman I described in 2008 in the song I Kissed a Girl. I knew that after her I was condemned not only by my parents, but also by many of my relatives. Nevertheless, I went to her exit. As I thought, it became much easier for me morally, and I do not care what they say about my relationship with me behind my back. Do not be afraid of love, no matter what sex your second half is. "
