I could release myself into acting in a way that I was not released socially.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If I wasn't acting, I would be trying to break into acting.
I never consciously set out to be an actor. I just kind of did whatever acting I could do.
I wanted to do a movie about being really good at something, yet being socially awkward and not as advanced in your personal life as you are in your creative life.
Acting was never something I wanted to do for the rest of my life, so it was easy to walk away.
I only got to be able to act, because I gave myself a job as a producer.
By the time I grew up, acting just seemed like something I'd already done. I had absolutely no interest in it, even though some people thought it would be my calling.
My acting ability would have sent me back to the post office. It was my singing that got me jobs. Ironically, now, people think of me as an actor and don't know me much as a singer.
I became an actor so I didn't have to be myself.
Everything about acting was either the opposite of my personality or it just didn't seem like something I wanted to be a part of.
There is nothing I feel that connected or passionate about that would take me away from acting.
