I'm my own worst critic, so I try and not focus on what I've done wrong, or what I could improve on.

Love is like nothing else on this earth, but only when it is shared with someone wonderful like you.

I would never discredit anyone that is working their way up on a show like "American Idol." I think they work so hard overcoming all of the obstacles to get on the show in the first place and then every week they are judged in front of all of America... I give them complete credit for getting up on stage... I think they deserve all the success that they get.

The actual producing, mixing, and mastering is hard work, harder than what I do.

I love looking through magazines, and you know, I love getting dressed up to go to events and stuff.

I travel the world visiting global health programs as an ambassador for the global health organization, PSI, and sometimes the disconnect I see is truly striking: people can get cold Coca Cola, but far too infrequently malaria drugs; most own mobile phones, but don't have equal access to pre-natal care.

There are parallels between the music and film worlds, but they're really very different. I feel like they're just two different ways to channel my creativity.
