When you get to a certain level of recognizability, celebrity, you can't go out of the house without someone going, "Can I just have one photo?"

I took a year of karate. It was like obligatory... every kid was taking like one year of karate and one year of piano in my town. It was Bruce Lee and Liberace. But I was not a white belt.
