My dad was the district attorney of New Orleans for about 30 years. And when he opened his campaign headquarters back in the early '70s, when I was 5 years old, my mother wanted me to play the national anthem. And they got an upright piano on the back of a flatbed truck and I played it.

I love orchestrating music and conducting and being on Broadway.

I guess play piano, you know, because that's the thing I started doing when I was a little kid.

I do the things I like to do. It's sort of a bigger version of having more than one hobby.

To be a good kisser start slow, definitely ramp into it and remember somebody's on the other side of your mouth!

I've learned that people latch onto labels and stereotypes. There was a period when I was asked in every single interview how I liked being the new Frank Sinatra... I think people will soon realize that I do a lot more than interpret old songs.

I think a dad has to make his daughter feel that he's genuinely interested in what she's going through.
