When you go to karaoke with a professional singer and they really start singing, there's no bigger buzzkill than that.

I just like working. I'm not good with downtime. I need to be doing something. I'm a music person, so I'll always have that going ... whether or not I'm getting paid for it . It was different to go into talk shows and performances by myself.

I've been very lucky to work with a lot of amazingly supportive directors.
