What is the use in being a celebrity if you can't use the platform to help?

If I can help one person, why wouldn't I?

I try to find, celebrate and teach leaders how to build platforms that will inspire others.

When you first get into television it is a big deal, then you realize you are no better than anyone else, we just have a platform to use, to help other people. I use that platform for the work I do in the military, the work I do with cancer because I was fortunate enough to get that platform.

A platform is the base from which something big happens. In our case, we're an entertainment platform in the sense that there are people signing up like MTV, Burberry, folks like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber. And why? Because it's their channel to control their entertainment to their fans.

You ought to serve on the platform you run on.

I used to do some philanthropic work, but with the political platform, I can contribute in a bigger way.

I used to hear people say nobody can prepare you for fame, and it's actually very true. But there is such beauty that comes with it when you're able to use your platform in a positive way.

Our goal is not to build a platform; it's to be cross all of them.

I'm using my platform to help out a little bit, you know. It's only right.
