I just wanted to be an athlete.

I never even thought about being an actor. Somebody asked me if I'd like to learn the craft, and I said, 'Okay.' I was a gymnast in a show at that time, and somebody asked me afterwards one night. I performed as a gymnast for nine years, and then I did acting after that.

One of the reasons I'm an actor is because I was no physical specimen as a child. I wasn't athletic and didn't have any prowess in that regard. Growing up in Kentucky, most little boys were trying to get into sports, and it was very competitive, so that was not to be. But I did want to do something.

I always wanted to be a professional athlete. I love my life.

I wanted to be a stuntman. I didn't really want to be an actor. I took classes when I was younger, but I really sucked.

I always wanted to be an actress. I couldn't imagine being anything else.

I wanted to be an endurance athlete from a young age. I remember being in a careers class at school and saying I wanted to be a professional athlete and the teacher replying, 'You're not going to make it; it's not possible.'

I like to be just an athlete, but if I go to competition and compete, I love to be a star, maybe.
