I had no real education because I was in and out of schools so I decided that I would completely change my look, change my image, change my name and move to New York.

I lost agents and managers because I turned down big movies that were smutty.

At the time I was growing up in the business I was very well established within the industry as a child actor and as I grew up and turned into a teenager there was less and less work.

Everything is a rejection of you, not your product, or your script, or a cosmetic. It's you.

My mother had been a country and western singer but when she moved out to Hollywood found it very difficult to get work so when I was born they put me into dance classes and singing classes as soon as I could walk actually.

I've played killers, crazies, and really bad people.

Hollywood people want to build you up and make you famous only to knock you off you're the pedestal they built for you.
