Being in the public eye, you can't really avoid a lot of questions. A lot of questions are being thrown at you, whether it's about your personal life or your personal beliefs, and I'm happy to answer them all.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't shy away from any questions. I'm not scared of any question. I'll give you an answer. A lot of people are scared of having actual opinions out there. People are so scared of criticism... I'm not scared of people disliking me.
I am in the public eye, and I accept that my actions may be open to question.
Sometimes, in public life, people ask inappropriate, off-the-wall kinds of questions, don't they?
In general, questions are fine; you can always seize upon the parts of them that interest you and concentrate on answering those. And one has to remember when answering questions that asking questions isn't easy either, and for someone who's quite shy to stand up in an audience to speak takes some courage.
The thing is, often press people ask questions that are so personal that even your nearest and dearest wouldn't ask them.
Anyone who agrees to be interviewed must decide where to draw the line between what is public and what is private. But the line can shift, depending on who is asking the questions. What puts someone on guard isn't necessarily the fear of being 'found out.' It sometimes is just the fear of being misunderstood.
I think it's really important for your mental health to think about the big questions, to discuss them and open your mind, in order to prepare you for both life and death.
Some people think, if you're in the public eye, that you have to have an answer for everything and it has to be boring.
I'm different, and my manner invites questions. I'm never afraid to answer.
I've never worried about life's big questions.
