I'm a whopping 5 foot 4 inches tall. I'm not going to get any taller.
I didn't work hard to sit down and not work.
At the end of the day, women are a distraction. Whether you realize it or not.
Everything is an open book. I don't speak on other people's hardship, but if it happened in my life or something that has been an experience on my particular journey, I'm going to talk about it. That's what my fan base appreciates the most. I'm universal. You can relate to the things I say or that I go through.
Everybody that's successful lays a blueprint out.
A reputation as a hard worker is a good reputation to have.
Is everything funny? For me, yes. There's a positive to every negative. Even my divorce? For me, yes. If you go back and look at it, why it happened or how it happened, there's something in there that'll make you laugh.
I feel like whatever you've done in your career, good or bad, it's nothing but preparation for the big events to come.
I go onstage and I talk, and I remember what I'm saying, and I track it.
I like playing basketball and going to the gym. I don't box, but I'll ride my bike and go jogging or running in the park. Sometimes my lady and I go hiking.
I'm never gonna step away from stand-up. I can't. That's what got me where I am, and that's also my muse. That's how I stay level-headed. That's what keeps me going.
I've done a great job at being universal in my stand-up, which is why, for 'Let Me Explain,' I toured all over the world. These movies I have coming out - 'Ride Along,' 'Grudge Match,' 'About Last Night,' 'Think Like a Man Too' - are putting me in a position to become universal on an even bigger scale.
Almost anything can be funny if said the right way - but it has to be said the right way.
At the end of the day, your fans are the people who support you in and out. And their opinions matter.
