Anna Sale

I saved up a lot of money for it.

Nobody... Listen, Anna, nobody buys a Ferrari to keep it parked in a garage, okay?

Like...

One of the things that I do is I take finasteride, which is meant to help you grow and sustain your hair.

And at the behest of my girlfriend, after many days of anxiety and panic, I finally booked an appointment with a dermatologist and got prescribed medication.

I would like to have hair on my head by the time I get married and by the time I have a kid or two.

So I'm not really looking to lose it anytime soon.

And also, I don't want to lose my hair because I do enjoy going to the barber and getting my hair cut.

I started to really have to reconcile with, oh, you've put a lot of emphasis on looks and I'm not sure how that's gonna serve you or how you're gonna untangle that.

Good luck.

And that's sort of when the addiction to alcohol and drugs kind of really, you know, took off.

I remember it very clearly.

It was a callback for Jersey Boys on Broadway, which was a huge deal, but I was so entitled and my perspective was so off prior, you know, a big fish in a small pond coming from, you know, the San Francisco Bay Area where I got pretty much all the parts I wanted.

And then when I didn't get that and I thought, oh, the whole plan might not work.

Like the whole A plus B equals C is maybe debunked.

And that was terrifying to me.

Uh-huh.

Hmm.

Interesting.

No, but I think it's really complicated because I think there's also internalized homophobia with this for men, gay men in theater, especially that when we're playing lead roles or masculine presenting roles that, and I'm saying all this because I was a 25 year old twink, right?
