Movie is an industry without job security. As soon as a job is done, you have to find a job. But I think doing different stuff makes you better at other stuff: Acting makes you better at stand-up, which makes you better at writing.

If I can make someone laugh, I lift them out of their fundamentally tragic existence.

Yogi Bear changed my life in ways that I can't explain because it's not a full feature on me.

I like hip-hop, but I don't like concerts. There's like sweat, on people's backs.

Work harder than anyone else around you.

Yogi Bear was a real moment in my life. Post-Yogi Bear: don't drink as much. Pre-Yogi Bear: like to drink much.

I feel a strong affinity to Ke$ha and Katy Perry and a lot of these women who are really pushing the girl power femme fatale thing. It's fun and it's unapologetic, and they tell women they can do whatever they want, and that's true, and that's a message that I want to carry, to tell girls they can do whatever they want.
