You may grow very quickly the first two years and then watch the business decline, unless you really start selling product at any price range with various degrees of quality.
It's very cool to be able to say that my first real film was 'Footloose' and my second film I got to star alongside Tom Cruise and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
I was living in Florida working as a model and got my first acting job there in the movie 'Wild Things.' I thought it was sort of cool and decided to do some training.
We had our first earthquake over here recently. That was a bizarre feeling. I just became disoriented and I remember my dad freaking out. Nothing broke or anything.
When my dad toured in '91, I think my first gig properly was the Tokyo Dome, 50,000 people indoors. That was pretty scary. I was 12, or 13.
When my dad first started out in the police force, wearing the uniform was a sense of pride, and it was respected in the community for what the police force was all about. Unfortunately today, the uniform is a target.
I was 13 - 14 when I first tasted stardom. In the summer holidays, my dad made me act in these films that went on to become superhits. I became a child star.
My dad took on every job he could get. He worked like mad. But then, at some point, he had saved up enough to open his first pub.
'Sweet Dreams' is such a dark-sounding song, but it's about not taking anything for granted; share yourself with others after you have first spent some time with yourself.
I am First Lady by accident. I was not elected by the people but here I am.
As social secretary, I was responsible for putting together all the events that the President and the First Lady host.
I shopped a lot on 1stdibs.com when I first started modelling. Just whenever, I've always been on and bought all my furniture on 1stdibs.com.
It's a lot of fun to just say to people, proudly, 'I get to play the First Lady.' It's just fun to say.
The First Lady role is really difficult. It has no job description... You have to create it for yourself.
When I designed my first house in L.A., I didn't have any money - I did it all on my own. I liked that.
I've always been a producer - that's how I see myself first. The DJing came second as a way for me to be able to perform.
People vote for whom they believe will be the best president and representative for our country. The First Lady is not on the ballot.
Captain Paul Prescott: [about Alicia] I don't like this, I don't like her coming here. Walter Beardsley: She's had me worried for some time. A woman of that sort. Devlin: What sort is that, Mr. Beardsley? Walter Beardsley: Oh, I don't think any of us...
You don't enter a dance studio and say "I can't do that." If you do, then why are you in the studio in the first place?
I have been to anger management twice. After the first session the lady was like, 'Baby, you don't seem that angry at all. You seem like a really nice guy.'
She was returning home to be the wife of, mother of, First Lady of, but what did that really mean?
