I always like stories where the egg ends up on my face.
I am the guy dressing up in, you know, the caveman outfit for the kids' birthday parties.
Mostly people are interested in how somebody becomes an actor. And then, if they've had a couple of drinks, they want to know what Demi Moore's like or whatever. I mean, I don't mind people asking that at all, but when you've answered it five times...
My parents did divorce, but my dad has always been present for me and loving me and my mom as well when she was alive.
I enjoy experiencing life. Being a celebrity can really stand in the way of that.
My dad is an attorney. I've always been interested in it. My sons are probably going to law school.
I meet so many people. I want to be genuine and open with everyone, because when I was young and just starting out, I remember I was around people who were successful, and I thought that some were kind of cool or off-putting to their fans. It always really bothered me. So I think I may sometimes go too far out of my way.
Kids are growing up and they don't know the difference between fact and fiction. The line is getting blurry. I can handle it, you know; I'm a big boy. And the entertainment industry has always been crazy. But the problem is, it spills over into some very serious issues, in politics and real newsworthy stuff.
I'm not unashamed to say that I like movies that make me verklempt.
In spite of being professionally gregarious, in my nonpaid hours I'm a bit of a hermit. After being around a crew of fifty people for twelve hours a day on a film set, I really like my alone time, and as always, I abhor small talk.
Conventions are, by nature, a party. I mean, that's why people become delegates. They come from all over the world to exercise their democratic rights and to party.
Some actors specialize in shooting weapons and punching people. Some have the market on playing buffoons cornered, others specialize in roles that require heavy makeup or outrageous wardrobe. Some trade exclusively in a post-ironic blase attitude.
If you treat China like a foe, surely she will become one.
Like most guys, I don't come to beauty regimes naturally. I'm dragged kicking and screaming by the best in the world.
