Folie à Deux star addressed persistent rumors early in her career that she was actually a man and why she was never overly defensive about it: “I’ve been in situations where fixing a rumor was not in the best interest of the well-being of other people.

She said, "They were like, ‘There’s this rumor that you’re a man, what do you have to say about that?'…The reason I didn’t answer the question was because I didn’t feel like a victim with that lie.'”

I went all over the world… and almost every interview I sat in they said… ‘There’s rumors that you’re a man. What do you have to say about that?’”
