I did not grow up in the church. I'm not a church-goer now. I'm a very spiritual person.

I did no research on The Best Man. That was something that came out from my own head.

I believe in a higher power. I've seen and been around people who are very extreme with their faith and pointing fingers and going, "You shouldn't do that because it's a sin against God." It's like, you know what? We're people. We're human beings. We're fallible. We have faults.

Holidays have been commercialized. It has become about material things. But the holidays are about sharing stories and being in each others presence.

I didn't want to be pigeonholed as an artist. I wanted to be able to have other stories to tell.

Nothing works until it does. Nobody knows anything. You don't know what people are going to respond to. People are always surprised by stuff.

Half the audience gets where I'm coming from and half the audience is like, "Wait a minute. What does that mean?"
