Last night on my way home my Uber was struck by a drunk driver. I had closed my eyes briefly because I was exhausted after a week of shows, then it happened. No screeching of tires. No gasp from my driver. Just silence followed by me opening my eyes in an ambulance. – – I heard the collision for a second, but quickly hit my head & it was over. The driver did not survive upon impact as I was told. They ran tests on me at the hospital, but outside of my shoulder feeling jammed & my right eye hurting, I only have a bruise. Grateful that it wasn’t worse for me, but very sore and stiff today. – – Oddly enough I was looking at this photo shoot I had done with @gabrielgastelum before I entered the car thinking about how many more ideas I have and want to show the world. – – Wear a seatbelt. I did. It changed what could have been a very different post. Thank you for all the kind notes I have already received. – – Be kind to everyone, even when it’s difficult. You have no clue what could happen or what someone is going through. #LoveIsMyReligion
Much public attention followed my recent posts on social media. These were posts I regret sharing. I don’t remember much of that night, including leaving my place of employment. I do recall waking up bruised, disoriented, sore, and with an extremely vivid recollection of events that had, to my mind, absolutely occurred. It is clear to me that they did not, in fact, happen. The past few months have been very stressful for my family and I. The stress, depression, heartache and confusion during this time have overwhelmed me. On the advice of physicians and caring mental health professionals, I am taking a break from work and social media to spend more time with family and practice some important self-care. In addition, I apologize to Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber’s CEO, for naming a company I respect in such a negative public way. That’s not who I am, but it’s what I did, and I am sorry for it. I also extend my apologies to Queer Bar, as well as anyone who may have felt that my original post lacked sensitivity. For that I am also regretful. I appreciate the continued support of my fans and respect for my privacy during this time. I hope to take better care of myself, learn from this painful season and nourish what brought me joy about my art to begin with.
