I look at my father. He is one of my heroes. He is such an incredible, classy man. He was such a great father and such a great husband in so many ways, and we lived through some pretty tough times losing my mom. When I see all that he did, I think, wow, that's a really wonderful man.

Reese Witherspoon is my everywoman. She's managed to have a family and this amazing career. That's the goal.

I always describe my career as something where nothing ever popped overnight.

Is it easy to avoid paparazzi? It is, it really is.
