It's the media that take an isolated incident and make it a deciding factor in a presidential campaign, as opposed to the real issues, like abortion, the homeless, the deficit. The same is true with actors and their lifestyles.
The media have such a strong hand in deciding what people's perceptions are. They decide what the agenda is going to be, what the issues are.
If people are watching me 365 days a year, 360 days they might be bored to tears. And on the other five days, maybe I would qualify as Satan.
I think of myself as a human being first and foremost, and secondly as a person whose profession is acting. If people want to make that into something more or less, that's up to them.
I'll be a role model on my terms, but don't make a role model on your terms.
You show me a perfect person and I'll show you somebody who has lived a very closed life.
I don't think you have to be perfect to be a role model.
You can't believe everything you read. It's never been more true.
I feel like every movie is definitely the last one that I've had my moment; that I'm going to be selling autographs at malls.
My life is really based around my house and my friends and my family at the moment, and has been for a while now.
There was a period in my life where I went out a lot and I had a really good time. But that period is over.
I think that in today's world the right to privacy and freedom of the press are set on a collision course.
Whether you're a presidential front-runner, or an Academy Award-winning actor, or head of a TV ministry, if you stay in the public eye long enough they're going to try and find a scandal.
Anyone who's lived their life to the fullest extent has a scandal buried somewhere.
