I wouldn't say necessarily that my life is as normal as the guy next door. There's a lot that goes along with being in the spotlight.
You just have to have the guidance to lead you in the direction until you can do it yourself.
I'm very proud of Family Ties. It's meant a lot to a lot of people.
I stopped acting because I had other passions I wanted to pursue.
As far as the media is concerned, I wouldn't shoot anything down.
When entertainment was begun, during the Depression, it was supposed to take people's minds off reality. People could sing, dance, act or do anything. It was the type of entertainment that was available.
My publicist always said as long as they pronounce your name or spell your name right, it's all good.
Be all you can be and live a good life, have fun with it.
You have to laugh, you have to be able to take criticism.
My parents were involved in everything I did. They were showbiz people themselves. My dad was an actor. They were parents; they did what parents are supposed to do.
Acting is definitely put at the back of my mind, if it's there at all right now. It's all entertainment.
I had an amazing experience working with great people. I had a great family, a typical family with drama in certain areas, and that's pretty much everywhere in everyone's life.
Whatever I'm doing, whatever comes along, this music is something that I've always wanted to do.
The people that watch or buy music or listen to TV, I don't think they separate the two as much as the people that are in charge of the production of it.
