It's like, I don't think you understand, Michael Jackson's bedroom is two stories and it has, like, three bathrooms and this and that. So, when I slept in his bedroom, yes, but you understand the whole scenario.
It was for one of his last Christmas specials. I remember I went to his hotel room to rehearse with him, and he was zoned out on medication or something, and I'm thinking, How is this going to happen?
He's a friend, but the kind of friend you talk to twice a year.
I hope I'm remembered as the king of the world, the noble man who united all the nations of the earth. But that probably won't happen.
All the child-star cliches, I've tried very hard to avoid them all.
I dont mind if somebody comes up to me and shakes my hand, but if Im in the middle of a restaurant and somebody asks me for a picture, I can be a jerk and say no, or I can say yes and draw more attention to myself, which is exactly the opposite of what I want.
I lead a simple life. I feed the fish. I walk the dogs. I cook dinner. Occasionally I take a meeting.
Acting found me. I thought maybe I should try to find it again. We'll see.
It's about finding unique, one-of-a-kind films that I would want to see myself. I think 'Party Monster' is one of those.
I have a lot of growing up to do, or a lot of growing down. I think that's probably more appropriate.
After seeing 'Big,' I wanted an elevator that opened directly into my apartment, just like Tom Hanks did.
I had all the fame anyone could want, and I ran away from it.
I felt like I had two fathers. I had my real father and the father in my head.
I have no control over people's perceptions of me at all and that's one of the things I decided very early on is that I can't control the way other people think of me. All I can do, especially when it comes to my career is go out there and do cool unique kinds of things.
