“I was lazy, though. I was always, like, sort of an outcast. And when I got home, I was always doing music, but when I was doing music, no one was there to judge it, you know?”

If you put 80,000 people together, no one knows each other, and once the music starts, everyone loves each other.

People always say, ‘How is it to be so successful?’ I’m not successful yet. Richard Branson is successful. That’s successful. Michael Jackson was successful. U2 was successful.

I actually did a remix for Katy Perry, and her management didn’t respond.

I studied psychology for a couple of years as a personal hobby, so you start learning about people and listening to your intuition, like when you you’re feeling that people are not being entirely straight with you.

I love what I do. Dance music is my passion, my life. There is no greater feeling than being one with my fans, partying to the music we love.

We didn’t have money for a babysitter, so she always brought me with her to the dancing school. Back then, I was already watching and listening to Michael Jackson for a long time.

That doesn’t happen with a lot of genres. If you go to a hip-hop club, it’s not like when one songs comes on that everyone suddenly loves each other.

My debut album, ‘Forget the World,’ is all about not listening to the negativity around you and to continue to do what you love, no matter what people think.

Maybe one day there will finally be an education for electronic music.

I think the most important thing about dance music is the connection.

Cars for me are like a piece of art.

When I was a baby, my mom used to have a dance school, and she used to teach classes there.

When you’re walking down the street or in the car just listening to the radio, and you’re, like , ‘Oh, that’s my song.’ You want to say, ‘Hey Mom!’ That never changes.

I have been fully involved in designing my stage shows; it’s important to me to do something really unique and almost off-the-wall to bring the music and the visuals together.

One of the reasons why my album is called ‘Forget the World’ is because when you listen to the world, you make stupid mistakes.

I’m just a guy, doing okay. But I’m a happy guy doing okay.

People always ask what I would have done if I weren’t doing what I’m doing. And I say I’d [still] be in fashion or in beauty. It’s such a dream come true now because I have the ability to go into home [goods] and accessories as well.

I was always doing beauty blogs about nails, and it would be on Fridays called Fridays Fingertip Fetish.

Doing interviews is very different from working as an actor.

I mean making a good living doing what I enjoy is soo much fun.

No one would get into doing a black-and-white comic because they thought it might be a route to riches.

Just because you’re doing something doesn’t mean that you’re fearless but you get up every day and you do it. It takes a lot of courage to be real.

Whatever, I copied all through school, and look how well I’m doing today.

You are not doing it to be loved back. Its value is to inspire you.
