Fame, you know, it's like a handgun - in the wrong hands, it's dangerous.
The paparazzi is kind of crazy here in L.A., but it's nothing like it is in London. They are animals over there, it's insane.
I don't think anyone wants to be in a role forever.
I actually grew up break-dancing. When you break-dance you listen to hip-hop and rap, so I've been listening to that music since I was a kid.
I grew up as an only child. My parents weren't great conversationalists. We had a quiet house. I'm not very verbal.
I'd like someone who challenges me, someone who is more beautiful in the inside than they are on the outside.
I don't get as much female attention as you'd think, because I never go out.
I'm a mellow guy, and I feel like my music is mellow.
I'm a huge Bob Marley fan; I remember going to Jamaica for the first time when I was a kid and I got so obsessed with the steel drums.
There are so many stage actors on TV but you wouldn't know they were stage actors. And film and TV actors are going to the stage as well, so the crossover is great now.
In high school, I had two friends that were suffering from cancer. I would go and sing for them while they were in hospital, and I sang at their services after they passed.
In all the shows I've done, I'm always the first to leave - it's in my make-up.
I know what it takes to be a good boyfriend. Time, first and foremost. To be there for someone and be involved in their life.
I like pushing myself, and usually if I'm not good at something I just won't do it because I'm a perfectionist.
