“It was always part of the plan to move into acting.”

I go through the same problems all young people go through. Being in this business, I accept that there are positives and negatives but having a strong family base and a belief in God enables me to weather the storms.

I want people to remember me as a full on entertainer and a good person.

My parents just tell me, ‘If you know what you want, you should stay determined and go for it. You can do anything.’

You have to enjoy your job; you should wake up every day and love what you do… I honestly do… From the bottom of my heart to the depths of my soul. I’m truly happy.

There are times in my life when I just want to be by myself.

Because I came out as a singer, I took the time to get an acting coach.

There is a bit of acting involved when you get in front of a camera for a video. Even when you perform onstage, you’re putting on a show.

There are certain things I want to keep to me. I don’t discuss my private life.

I’m a survivor and I can handle anything. I’m very confident about that.

That’s why I work every day. Ev-er-y day. I want to knock people out.

I wanna be the best at what I do. I wanna sing, I wanna dance, I wanna act. That’s about it.

It’s really a sad story, and I liked that. The songs on this album talk about relationships in every aspect.

I stay true to myself and my style, and I am always pushing myself to be aware of that and be original.

In film, you are a totally different person than in the video.

I have the time needed to support the album and tour.

If at first you don’t succeed. You can dust it off and try again. Dust yourself off and try again.

A man who strains himself on the stage is bound, if he is any good, to strain all the people sitting in the stalls.

The whole thing about acting, the draw for me, is the opportunity to do things you don’t get to do in real life.

What matters in Politics is what men actually do – sincerity is no excuse for acting unpolitically, and insincerity may be channelled by politics into good results.

I was a bad student. I liked archaeology actually, I was interested in maybe becoming an archaeologist but I was such a bad student and had such bad grades that I wasn’t going to get into any really good college so I fell back on acting.

For me personally, I’m mostly focused on writing and acting right now.

Getting up early and setting myself daily targets, even outside of acting, keeps me active and motivated in general and thus happier, which I hope translates into my personality and my work.

Regarding green screen, green screen is really like doing some stage work. You have to make believe that there is a window, make believe that something is there that is really not there and convince the audience. It’s part of acting.

When you drop your guard in films, the acting process compensates. You get lazy and you start acting.
