Quotes

“I think it was because I’m gay and also because I had a following on Musical.ly and Twitter. So, everyone in this town knew who I was.”

“People would bully me. They would shout homophobic slurs from their cars at me. It was a terrible situation. But then I moved to LA. I knew what I wanted to do and just did it. I had a dream and just made that dream come true.”

“I was just with an influencer who refused to take a picture with a fan. It blew my mind. I was like, ‘We’re not doing anything. You’re just standing here. You need to take the picture.’ So, I took the fan’s phone and took the picture.”

“Sometimes I give my fans my number and I’ll FaceTime them or I’ll Zoom them. Without them, I would not be here. I’d be in college, depressed and studying geometry or something.”

“The diversity on TikTok is weird as f—-. I feel like the For You Page (the videos that appear on a user’s feed) picks and choses its favorites. And obviously their favorites are Caucasians. And there are so many talented black creators. I’m trying to use my platform to help people of color blow up.”

“My content creator journey started with me finding myself in high school. In 2014, I saw a lot of creators who were a part of the LGBTQ+ community who were posting, being themselves, and just having fun with it […] I was obsessed with how they were so happy, youthful, and living their best lives, so I tried making content.”

“I really wish I would have taken more advantage of my time in the Hype House and made more videos with them for the memories, but it was definitely fun to just be a part of.”

“If there’s something I want to do in real life but I’m too embarrassed to do it, I’ll do it on YouTube. My channel helps me find ways to express myself. If it wasn’t for YouTube, I’d probably still be in the closet.”

“Knowing that my videos help other people who were once in my shoes, and that are possibly still in my shoes, drives me to post more.”

“It takes two seconds to reply to a DM, take a picture, or even just leave a simple voice memo. It makes somebody’s day.”

“At the restaurant, Jennie from Blackpink was there, and she paid for our dinner. She was so sweet, and that literally made my entire week. If I can impact someone’s life the same way, then I’m going to do it.”

“If any of my fans are having a rough time right now or are being bullied, I’d let them know that feeding into someone’s negative energy isn’t going to make them feel any better. It’s honestly probably just going to level out the playing field.”

“The best revenge is just ignoring them and focusing on yourself. Blowing them a kiss when you’re rich and successful will make it all better.”

“I’m having fun right now with making music, and I feel like when you listen to a Larray song, you feel like a bad*ss b*tch. Every song I’ve made is uplifting and shows you “D*mn, I’m a bad*ss b*tch.”

“I’m just trying to make the girls feel good and the gays feel better. I’m living my best life, and I want my fans to live theirs, too.”
