I've been doing this long enough that you can tell when people have seen you in something they didn't enjoy, and when they have seen you in something they actually enjoyed.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've had people come up to me in the past and say they enjoyed whatever show I've been in.
People are always telling me that they've seen people reading my books on the subway, or the beach, or whenever.
Every time I sit in the audience and watch a show that I have been involved with, it is such an amazing feeling to see all those people around me, knowing they are actually watching and enjoying something I have written.
More people saw me in 'Love Actually' than had seen me in everything else I had ever done up to that point.
I think I was perceived in one fashion. A video is based on a song. I think you can get glimpses of people's presence within that. There's some people you enjoy watching more than others.
I'm never a person who likes anything I've done. It's just the way it is. Twenty years later, I can look at something I did, and I'm still thinking, 'You know, that could have been better if you had done it this way or that way.
I find that the more I begin to look around, I see so much good that people do that goes unnoticed. So many wonderful things.
When I was a kid just starting out on the radio, I would always watch people. And I'd see the interest they'd have in trying to get a photo with an artist or get a ticket stub signed. I guess, to me, that's the ultimate thing - to know that what you've done is important enough to other people that they want to take a picture with you.
That's like the greatest experiences of my life still, 'Friends,' so it's not something I want to get away from, but I do want to try and show something new.
I know that I have a face, a look, people aren't used to seeing. A presence.
