daughter mother real
Creative people don't behave very well generally. If you're looking for examples of good relationships in show business, you're gonna be depressed real fast. I don't have time for anything else right now but work and my daughter. She's my first priority.
christmas daughter mother
My mother was a professional sick person; she took a lot of pain pills. There are many people like that. It's just how they are used to getting attention. I always remember she's the daughter of alcoholics who'd leave her alone at Christmas time.
daughter jobs sex
I enjoy fame except when I'm with my daughter. Kids stop me all the time and I don't want her to be jealous of the attention. Also, sometimes I just want to be left alone and I refuse to make rubber faces. That's when they start asking, What's the matter, man, don't you like your job? I say, Yeah, I like my job. But I also like having sex, and I'm not going to do that in front of you either.
since
Ever since I started to get recognition I've picked out certain fans and reverse-stalked them.

There's new territory, there's new places to go, new things to explore. Why stay back there? ... Maybe it will take three films to find another character that is really totally original, but I've got a lifetime, so why waste it just repeating myself.

I enjoy his music, but he scares me, ... His lyrics are totally socially irresponsible. But I think if we just spend more time with our kids, we'll be OK.

Second year in a row -- what's going on here, man? ... I'm the establishment I once rejected. ... I'm the Tom Hanks of the Golden Globes.

New management came in and they cleaned everybody out so we hit the skids. We lived in a van, so I kind of know what happens to people when this happens.

The truth will set you free.
common felt guilt incredible please since success terrible unable
What I have in common with the character in 'Truman' is this incredible need to please people. I feel like I want to take care of everyone and I also feel this terrible guilt if I am unable to. And I have felt this way ever since all this success started.
believe missing lucky
[The highs and lows of show business is] a rollercoaster for sure. There's so many highs, there's just moments of your life where you go, "Wow I can't believe how insanely lucky I am," and then you can turn around and the next moment feel so completely caught up in your own wanting, and desiring, and needing and feel like somehow you're missing something. It's just higher the high, the lower the low.
fun serious made
Everything can be made fun of. The most serious things are ripe for making fun of them.

I like to enjoy life, I like to engage in life, so I would say I'm a yes man.
