[1] Jack Shamama, "An interview with Rufus Wainwright", undated interview from sometime in 2005, gay.com: Asked if being openly gay has hurt or helped him, replied, "Maybe hurt my career but really helped my life, which is much better than if it was the reverse. I think if I had had too much furious fame in the beginning, I could have very likely been a casualty, and this sort of glass ceiling that I've hit is really a shield."
