I hope my fans will grow with me. I want to be like Michael Jackson: 5-year-olds love his music, and 75-year-olds love his music.
I have a dog named Steve that lives at the studio.
I grew up on oldies like the Beatles and the Beach Boys, Led Zeppelin and The Who.
I grew up on Jerry Lewis and Abbot and Costello, the Marx Brothers.
I fell in love with '50s hot-rod, pinup-girl culture.
I don't want just 25-year-old girls watching my show. I want Grandma, Grandpa and Mom and Dad and the kids. I just want everyone to hear good music.
I don't eat sushi, but I eat cooked meat.
Dealing with sketch comedy and buddy teams like Abbott and Costello, Bob Hope and Bing Crosby - I just loved buddy comedies.
Artists like Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga have more sway over popular minds than a politician.
A lot of who I am is in the work I do.
A lot of the people I'd love to work with, like John Lennon, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, aren't alive, unfortunately.
I started playing the guitar and singing at about 11 or 12.
I am 'Mr. Karaoke Guy' in the car completely. I just go with it and don't care what anyone else thinks - I'm singing, man!
I'm totally the 'decorate early, start listening to Christmas songs super early' guy. I've just always been that way.
