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.

Do not trust the person of spite; though you have loved and tamed them, the snake will bite.

You put yourself on the line as a performer, and when people reject you, it's a personal rejection.

The highest grossing films have great, moral messages - not dirty, base themes, so we're trying to get producers to make more of the uplifting movies.

I can meet any producer in Hollywood and look them in the eye, knowing I didn't sleep with them, or do drugs with them.

You've got to hang on to who you are, what you are. Don't let anyone take it from you.

Drugs won't enhance your performance.
