I DJ very often. I'll probably do it more. I'm not available during the week because of the show but I travel most weekends to DJ. I've been doing it for about six years.
I meditate twice a day. I chant. I lean more towards Buddhist practices.
The reason I love acting is because I feel like acting is all about listening.
I ended up doing amazing things with my life; I'm well-read, educated and sophisticated - and I'm not the stereotype everyone makes me out to be.
After we wrote The Wreckoning, our record label did listen.
