I'm addicted to directing!

Mary J. Blige is the Queen Latifah character. Her voice in this movie [Rock of ages] is, she just gives it this incredible warmth, and she's just this person who blows out of the screen. She's just incredible.

For me, there was never an end game for becoming a director.

Rock of the ages been a really interesting job. It's been exhausting. It's been the hardest thing I've ever done because it's just so big, and I haven't had a lot of time. And I'm just kind of blowing through this. And everybody's, like, happy, and giving thumbs up. Most of the actors have said "this is the best role they've ever had." So you know, that's important to me.

Dancing and music were my first love. I was happiest at being a chorus boy.

I'm living at a very intense discomfort level because my career has been predicated on safety.

The discovery of dance has changed my life in unimaginable ways.
