I've travelled a lot, but I am essentially American. All my input has been American.
Someone's going to put the clothes on you, and part of being an actor is wearing costumes. Costumes tell you an awful lot about who you are, so you just, it's nothing.
If you get called on to help somebody pull focus to some good cause, that's good use of your fame. I don't try to avoid that.
I don't remember what my favourite comedy film is - truthfully! I saw Borat and I thought I was not going to be able to get out of the theatre because I was in so much pain from the laughter.
I've never had any intimate relationships with a dolphin.
I have to deal with being famous. Sometimes I have to tell people I don't do autographs, thank you very much. At certain places, I refuse to have my photograph taken.
If you sat down and you wrote a script, you may write something that's way beyond what you've ever seen me do, but if you thought of me to do it, I would be flattered to be asked to do something other than be wise.
The trick to any profession is making it look easy.
If I stay at home, I'm not famous. I'm only famous when I'm out in the streets, so I don't go out on the streets much.
The better the actor, usually the safer you feel working with.
What I haven't talked about I don't intend to talk about.
The main thing about awards in movies is that they can serve as an economic surge for the film. If you're movie gets nominated for any award it does it a big favour. People might go and see it again... they won't give up on it.
You don't know how much you appreciate your privacy until you don't have it.
I've always been really hot on westerns. All my life growing up, cowboy, cowboy, cowboy.
