Show me who your friends are and I'll show you who you are. It works for me. Stay positive and good things happen.

I do a lot of TV stuff, but I also turn a lot down - it's got to be an adventure.

Honestly, a lot of people thought that I was on top of the world selling so many millions of records, and that this is the life that everybody would want, but I never got to enjoy any of my success.

All my friends were black and Mexican. I was the only white kid in our group and had to work hard to be accepted. Year after year, we'd breakdance and we all became close and they labeled me "Vanilla" - like "Hey, Vanilla" and they knew I hated it, so of course they kept calling me it.

Not everyone agrees on music. Some people like rap, some like country - it's all an opinion. F the critics.

Concerts every night, autograph signings, endorsements, and so on. That's not what real life is about.

I do freestyle jumping. Been doing since I was eight years old and can't quit. I'm addicted. I've broken many bones, but I ride with confidence. It's my thing - there's no high on earth like it. It's my hobby and I really enjoy it.
