I grew up in a modest neighborhood just outside of Los Angeles. It was an industrial community of blue-collar, working people... some of the hardest-working people I've ever met.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up in a pretty tough neighborhood.
I began my career in Los Angeles and started working fairly quickly.
I kept saying that I'd never live in L.A., and I didn't think I would. But that's where the work is, and I ended up making a lot of friends there, and my old friends moved out to Los Angeles too. And also, I think when you're famous, its hard to live in a small town.
Contrary to public opinion and the image people have of me, I grew up in a very lower-middle-class, blue-collar environment 40 minutes outside of New York until I was 11.
I grew up in the suburbs.
Well, I grew up in a tough neighborhood.
I lived in Los Angeles in the '80s, which was not the best place to be.
I grew up in L.A. I actually grew up in the Valley, which was a pretty amazing place to grow up because everybody has nice, big backyards, and I was kind of a little nature being.
I grew up in L.A., but I was the only one in my family born there.
I grew up in the suburbs, a calm suburb, without tension, with working-class and middle-class people mixed together.
