“I’ve always talked about Jesus. I’d be screaming and singing…I had a song I’d sing called ‘In The Name.'”
Richard went on to talk about God loving everyone, despite your sexual orientation.
“When I first come in show business they wanted you to look like everybody but yourself. And anybody that comes in show business they gone say you gay or straight…God made men, men and women, women. You’ve got to live the way God wants you to live…he can save you.”
