Female performers have been doing this for years - pushing the envelope about sexuality - and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out.
You can't plan everything - if I did a performance exactly how I rehearsed it, it would be so boring.
One day I'm riding a bicycle in my neighborhood, the next day I auditioned for Menudo and was on a plane to perform in front of 200,000 people.
I've mainly been in dramas, so this is one of my first comedy kind of performances in Cecil B. Demented.
Management controls performance in people because it impacts skills; it’s a matter of monitoring, analyzing and directing.

In French culture, the best way of buying time or getting off the hook entirely in a thorny personal situation is to claim that it’s complicated. The French did not invent love, but they did invent romance, so they’ve had more time than any other...
