I am not a dark person and I don't consider myself dark.

When I was a kid I always wanted to be a mad scientist. I don't know... a regular scientist just was no one.

Most people say about graveyards: "Oh, it's just a bunch of dead people. It's creepy." But for me, there's an energy to it that it not creepy, or dark. It has a positive sense to it.

I did some sports. It was a bit frustrating. I wasn't the greatest sports person.

Once you get labeled, there's nothing you can do about it.

One of the things I loved about the musical was that you listened to the soundtrack and it told you the story.

I've always liked monster movies and I've always been fascinated by - again, growing up in a culture where death was looked upon as a dark subject and living so close to Mexico where you see the Day of the Dead with the skeletons and it's all humor and music and dancing and a celebration of life in a way. That always felt more of a positive approach to things. I think I always responded to that more than this dark, unspoken cloud in the environment I grew up in.
