George Clooney is a wonderful philanthropist. But I've heard regular people say, "Would he just shut up and be hot?"

Being on TV in front of people is a lot different than sitting in a dark room with a microphone. When I had my radio show, I was on four hours a day for 20-something years. If you put a live microphone in front of Mother Teresa for that amount of time, she'd piss somebody off.

Being tall and big was probably more painful than being black.

Maybe it's your obligation to use your celebrity for more than just your new BMW. I use mine to make people smile.

I am a Beyonce fan. I’m gonna watch her upcoming documentary because fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning so I’ll be able to understand what she says. You know Beyonce can’t talk. She sounds like she has a fifth grade education.

The ocean, after all, is not about stability but about change. Change is normal. Everything changes. All the time.

I'm not a dancer, and it was very time-consuming. But I met great people, and it was flattering to be asked to be on. You don't understand how demanding that show is until you're on the inside. That is real work. Real work!
