AE: I must say, you've had a fascinating life. I hope it feels that way to you, because just reading about you earlier and talking to you now, you've done it all. You must be pretty proud.
WE: You know what's been amazing? I got the website up, and you can reach me from the website, and I've answered every email I've gotten. During the
Land of the Lost marathon, I had not intended to watch it at all. I don't watch myself. There isn't one picture in my house of me, no posters from movie I've done, or concerts I've done. But people started emailing me, so it became this very interactive day, which was neat.
Most of the emails I got were from guys. I have some emails that would just break your heart, they're so beautiful. Emails about guys coming out and understanding watching me, crushes, one guy said it changed his life. His email is so detailed, he's a very successful, professional guy now. I've just been honored. I'm so thrilled that people have been courageous enough to email me. You know, on the website I didn't even talk about my sexuality. I go to my computer and find more emails every day.
