Quotes
“I think, hands down, the number one person I would love to have in a video is Beyonce. I think the perfect video for me – I could die happy and I could never make a YouTube video again – would be to do a video called ‘Bey-Oz-ce’ and mix ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and Beyonce together because those are my two favorite things in the world.”

“I’m a huge fan of Beyonce for so many reasons, and not the reasons that most people are. There’s the obvious reasons – she’s gorgeous, she’s talented or whatever, but I think she’s really super-consistent.”

“A lot of the people who have been on ‘American Idol’ have unfortunately not been very successful after the show is over. I would be one of the most successful contestants to not make it to the Top 12. So that would be a good statistic to throw into the show. It’s what you make of it.”

“Growing up in the Bible Belt of Texas, I thought for sure there was no way – if I’m 100 percent true to myself and come out as a gay, African-American person in 2015 – that people are going to be able to accept that and understand it.”
— Todrick Hall
“The number one question I’m asked as a YouTuber every day is, ‘How can I get my videos out there; how can I make my videos go viral?’”
