I played Luke Skywalker. Every time we played, I was Luke Skywalker. Nobody else could be Luke Skywalker.
I love giving the golden shower. I've done it before in the shower. It's like so sexy, you know, the temperature of your body and the shower water is very different.
Amongst the qualities a hero should have, I would include determination, loyalty, courage, perseverance, patience, focus, intrepidity and selflessness.
Anything can change in show business; you know how it goes, everything changes from one day to the other.
Every family is different. I am mom and I am dad and I'm going to do my best. You should be proud, walk through life saying I have the coolest family. I am part of a modern family.
For many years I thought I was bisexual. And then I would ask myself, 'What is bisexual? Does that even exist?'
I had very steady and formal relationships with women. And I can say, I fell in love with women and it felt right.
The homosexual community wants me to be gay. The heterosexual community wants me to be straight. Every [writer] thinks, I'm the journalist who's going to make him talk. I pray for them. I pray that they get a life and stop living mine!
I used to look at gay men and think, 'I'm not like that, I don't want to be like that, that's not me.'
I hated it when people tried to force me out when I wasn't ready. It was very painful, and it actually pushed me away from doing so.
I eat everything, that's a problem. I don't have discipline. My favorite dish is the Caribbean. Meat, rice, lots of grains. But I do like to do exercises. Lately, I've been having capoeira classes and lots of cardiovascular exercises, such as jogging and cycling.
I truly am the reflection of perfection.
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.
You just have to get rid of fear and confront the world. Look at yourself in the mirror and say to yourself, 'I love you and nothing will destroy you and you're not going to fall.'
