“When I see my own people going through the tough times, it’s a wake-up call. I hope my influence can impact someone else’s decision to get out here and vote.”

I’m trying to become a young CEO, to brand myself in television and movies.

I’m loving N.Y., and words can’t even describe how happy I am to be here.

People ask for this life, but they don’t really understand what comes with it. People just see the outside and that looks good – big houses, cars, girls, but you never see how the person is feeling deep down inside.

Dealing with the fame and going from nothing and becoming something where everyone wants a piece of you, your life changes in a day.

Guys like Todd Bridges never overcame being a child star. You can’t have any big failures. I’ve always felt regular. I played organized ball at the rec league. At 13, they told me I sold 3 million copies. I didn’t know what that meant.

I don’t prepare for my roles. I don’t watch movies to get inspired. I don’t dig deep. I’ll never be that type of actor, and I doubt that I ever will be.

I can take all the negative energy and turn it into a positive simply by purging my soul through music. That’s how powerful music can be.

I love my fans very much. They give me the confidence to continue things in life.
