I sort of dreamed about directing before my career as an actor took off. I've directed stage before in so many capacities on tours. I put that together. You have to. Otherwise, it's your statement. It's your voice, and that has to come through.

I feel very fortunate to be compared to somebody so incredible. Michael Jackson's an icon.

There's nothing wrong with shooting for the stars.

I think the first half of my 20s I felt I had to achieve, achieve, achieve. A lot of men do this. I'm looking around now and I'm like, Where am I running?

Every relationship I've been in, I've overwhelmed the girl. They just can't handle all the love.

We've been in that situation where you're just so happy to be doing what you love to do that you get taken advantage of.

We have a couple of rules in our relationship. The first rule is that I make her feel like she's getting everything. The second rule is that I actually do let her have her way in everything. And, so far, it's working.
