1 | Because when you go out, and you have fun, basically you're performing for these tabloid outlets and the paparazzi. And when you perform and create this story, they're chuffed - they get excited, they capture it, and they put it out. |
2 | I have a bunch of concepts and ideas that I want to do but I have also been growing my production company in general and looking to branch out of projects that I am directing and producing. |
3 | I think anybody who's famous has to deal with their fame in their own way, and I dealt with it by making a film about a kid who's looking out into the world of celebrity obsession. |
4 | I think winter wear is communal. You get some gloves and a scarf from a lost-and-found box, wash them, wear them for a while until you lose them. Then somebody else does the same thing. |
5 | Well, obviously I'm not Mark Wahlberg - I have much better abs and I look much better in a pair of Calvin Kleins but when I saw Mark Wahlberg interacting with the world, I realised that his stardom was sort of a result of the movies he had done and the publicity that he had got and the work that he did. |
6 | Once you get into the habit of work, you can be more productive in the things you want to do. |
7 | Secondly, love and relationships are complicated. No one could ever get it right in a four-line sentence. |
8 | Tabloids can be fun. I see stuff sometimes and have a good laugh. |
9 | What is important is family, friends, giving back to your community and finding meaning in life. |
10 | You ask any actor - they'll tell you they'd rather shoot on location because you don't have to invent the energy, the energy is there. |
11 | I don't shop. I haven't shopped in about four years. |
12 | I have always chosen roles that I believed in - not ones that I thought might further my career. |
13 | I think, in a lot of ways, celebrities represent the American dream. They have financial fluidity and options at their disposal. |
14 | I want to show people that environmentalism can be fun! |
15 | I was rebellious. |
16 | It's enough to indulge and to be selfish but true happiness is really when you start giving back. |
17 | My only ambition when I came to Hollywood was to pay my rent. |
18 | Being performers, that's what we do: We put on shows and want people to watch. |
19 | Celebrities become divas because they get pampered so much, babied so much - then they get used to it. |
20 | Certainly, if it had been anything other than an HBO show I'd probably still be in Mexico now with a Mexican wife and kids. |
21 | I'm one with New York and New York is one with me. I grew up there; there's no escaping it. We're like Siamese twins, if you separate us, I'll die. |
