I'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.

I think we do live in a very specialized society, where once you think about somebody as one thing, it's hard to change that. But I do a lot of things. I act, I write, I sing.

Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.

When I was a little kid I thought I would grow up to be black and sing jazz in nightclubs.

I'm so associated with being young and being with a teenager.

My parents always raised us with the idea of having college in mind. You sort of need a college education. It's part of life. It's something that you do - like going to your prom.

I never really felt like I belonged in California.
