We always thought the Tom Tom Club could change to anything, but it acquired this image, which was cartoon animation and this real light-hearted dance music.
Social revolutions and group revolutions are good, and we need that, but we also need personal revolution - revolution within ourselves that change who we are as people.
I've always listened to a lot of rap. It's all, 'Look at this car that cost me so much money, look at this Champagne.' It's super fun.
Relationship humour gets the most laughs. If I'm able to get the women laughing, men will have to laugh along because they would be scared to death.
I'm always praying for a part that would be something that I could be really proud of, in which I could use the gifts God gave me in a positive way.
I have great childhood memories cow-tipping, going off and getting lost in the bog for hours, and coming home covered in dirt.
As for money - when I have it, it's great. When I don't, I go get some. I've been a dishwasher, a gardener, a cleaner.
You get nervous when you're identified with something that is really great and positive for so long. You don't want to not be that person, but there are going to be other roles in your career.
I've worked with just as many talented women as I have talented men, and I feel fortunate enough to have that great balance.
Every good relationship, especially marriage, is based on respect. If it's not based on respect, nothing that appears to be good will last very long.
I want my home to look good, feel good, and smell good. I want it to be inclusive, to reflect the people who live there.
A good wife is someone who thinks she has done everything right: raising the kids, being there for the husband, being home, trying to do it all.
I only scream and scratch when something's only 'really good' or 'good', I want to be great, or let's go home.
I'm useless scrabbling around at home. I get on everyone's nerves, including my own. I'm not very good at amusing myself.
It really hit home that my parents felt as though they didn't have to worry anymore. They realized if you could win an Oscar, that was a good sign.
I believe in Karma. If the good is sown, the good is collected. When positive things are made, that returns well.
I wanted to be a ballerina so badly. You can be seen and take over the spotlight without speaking. I had a fear of speaking in public back then.
America is such a nation of suppressed emotion, and when you arrive in L.A., you can smell the fear. It's the most alien country I've ever been to.
Greatness comes from fear. Fear can either shut us down and we go home, or we fight through it.
I definitely feel we're moving forward. There's a lot more understanding... there's less fear and we're working on there being less hatred.
I think interviews can be fine. It's just there's this terrible fear of coming off wrongly or saying something that gets taken out of context.
