I'm hideously shy as myself, but on stage I can run around naked and bite the heads off fish.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been able to perform in front of thousands of people on stage in a character that's nothing like me. I'm very shy.
Stage-persona notwithstanding, I'm extremely shy and quiet. Almost painfully shy. People misinterpret that as being above it all or not interested.
From the core, I'm a shy person, but when I'm on stage, I know how to put it aside. Of course, I'm not perfect, but I've definitely grown as far as being comfortable on stage.
I can be shy, but I'm not shy with my body. Everyone is naked under their clothes - so what?
Off stage, I'm very quiet and very reserved and kind of shy.
There is a shy side to me that evaporates when I play on stage, and I like that. I think it's another facet of my character, and I need to do that.
I continue to be very shy. I think a lot of actors and performers are really weird, shy people working it out onstage. I don't know why that is.
It's kind of weird - I get shy when I'm around new people, still, even when I'm onstage. I come from not really wanting to be in lights or known or in front of people.
I'm super shy, especially at parties.
I was always shy and had a huge fear of being onstage.
