Jodie FosterWhen I first was on Big Time Rush, the TV show, I did a lot of silly things. Among the first episodes that came out, my buddies wanted to have a viewing party, so we turned it into a drinking game. Every time I did something dumb, we took a shot. We were hammered!

I have to apply the human aspect of all our culture dictates . . .

Rosecrans BaldwinIt's hard for me to play seated theaters because people tend to sit down and get a little bit complacent, so it's less energy. It's just very dry and dead.

So it's a little bit dangerous to do that.
