I don't like to carry things in my pockets.
— EJ Johnson
In high school, I listened to Lady Gaga and I was really obsessed with just being who you are and owning that experience - she was a really big inspiration in that aspect to me and my friends, who were young and growing up, and making our way through the city and the world.
I would watch 'the Kardashians' and think, I could do that.
I'm just very comfortable in my own skin. I like my body.
I'm very happy with myself and I think - I always say that I think that if you feel like you're not in the right body, then by all means get to where you want to be.
I have a lot of personality and I'm funny.
I miss those days when I could just walk around under the radar and no one really knew who I was until I wanted them to know.
I remember being, like, 4 and 5 and playing in my mom's closet. But also asking questions like 'Who's this?' and 'What's that?,' and my mom explaining to me, 'This is a Chanel and this is a Versace.'
I don't feel the need to transition. I'm almost 100 percent positive I won't.
I wear what I want to wear and I do what I want to do and I think everyone should do that.
I think that New York liberated me in the sense that I moved here when I was 18, so it was a fresh perspective on life. I had been living in L.A. my whole life and I had never lived anywhere else, so being away from family and really making a name for myself was huge for me.
I'm not just some other rich girl who's trying to get a show.
I don't feel that I'm in the wrong body. I feel like this is the body I'm supposed to be in.
