My mother started me on the piano when I was 3 years old.

People either think Hodor is a very easy character to play or a very difficult one; there's no in between. But it's a lot of fun having to completely switch personalities inside four seconds, with no words. That's a joy for an actor to get to show all that complex emotion in such a short space of time.

I did some musical theater and studied a little bit of acting as well.

I was always very into heavy metal, and heavy metal is full of emotion and extremes, and I think that's the same in dance music.

Obviously, there's so many different types of gay people, but some people don't know that. Some people think we all look and act a certain type of way.

I'm aware of the subgenres and why they exist. But I don't feel like I have to limit myself. I don't feel like I just have to play deep house, just play tribal house, just play progressive house. I wouldn't feel right if I had to limit myself.

I think you can go too far into your subgenres. When you're talking about chillstep and stuff like that, I think you've gone a bit too far.

I was quite a shy person growing up, and drag was very much a shield for me to perform behind.

I like to go out for dinner in Belfast with my friends, I like to work on the house. I like working on music.

I've had dogs all my life. I'm a huge animal lover, especially dogs, so that's one of the hardest things about being away all the time. I really miss them, but my mum does a really good job looking after then when I'm gone.

I haven't read more than two pages, but my mother is a George Martin super fan.

I never stopped DJing through the entire 'Game of Thrones' process. I never saw the need to stop because I do love it so much.

I play music for people all over the world. It's a huge privilege.

When I started 'Game of Thrones,' the first three seasons, I still DJ'd every night before I went on set. I'd finish DJing at 3 A.M. and have to be on set at 5 A.M.

I keep explaining this to people: I can do more than one thing.

I'm not saying I'm the bee's knees. But I am a legitimate musician.

Most of the clubbing I did was gay clubbing.
