For me the two biggest issues are climate change and animal welfare/animal agriculture. And oddly enough animal agriculture is such a contributor to climate change. According to the United Nations, 25% of climate change comes from animal agriculture, so every car, bus, boat, truck, airplane combined has less CO2 and methane emissions than animal agriculture.

I'd much rather go out and have music randomly presented to me by different DJs than stay home and discover it on my own.

For me, New York still ranks as the most beautiful and the most interesting city in the world. It is also the most varied in terms of the things it has to offer.

I'll look through 'Us Weekly' and I'll see a picture of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston. And I'm like, 'Wow, they just... they look so good. Even if they're like just wearing jeans and a t-shirt, they still look great.'

I just have to remind myself that my daily quotidie in life has almost nothing to do with any aspect of my professional life as a public figure.

I may be a lifelong 'downtowner,' but Central Park really is the most amazing and the most beautiful part of New York City.
