I made a conscious effort to focus on television so I could stay in Los Angeles, so I wasn't on a location all over the world doing movies.

New Orleans. Born and raised. I lived there until I was 19.

If I had grown up in any place but New Orleans, I don't think my career would have taken off. I wouldn't have heard the music that was around this town. There was so much going on when I was a kid.

I was born in Connecticut. But my parents brought my sister and I to L.A. when-Hollywood, actually, when i was 6 months old.

I did grow up in New Orleans. I grew up right on the lake, right across the levee.

I wasn't hanging around the movie theaters in New York where I grew up, a Manhattan brat.

I didn't go to the cinema a lot when I was young.

I suppose when I was a kid, and I went to movies, and later went to some plays on my own when I got a little older, in New Orleans, where I was living then, I zeroed in on the actor.
