I wouldn't go up on a stage now if you paid a thousand dollars for one minute of acting. It's a nasty experience. You're up there all by yourself. You're so damn exposed.

Being on stage is a seductive lifestyle. My advice to aspiring actors is think twice. People sometimes go into acting for the wrong reasons - as a shortcut to fame and fortune. If these goals are not attained, they feel a bitter disappointment.

I was not naturally meant to be on stage. I hated being in the spotlight; I was scared.

My intention of making acting a career was about being onstage.

'm not saying I would never do acting again, because I love it, but there really is nothing compared to getting up in front of people and singing your music.

I am auditioning again - getting back to theatre would be amazing.

I haven't appeared on stage in quite a long time and I don't have any immediate plans to do so, but I'm always interested in going back.

I'll eventually go back to theater because the feeling of being on stage where you have the audience right there, you can't replace that with anything.

I still have the desire to do the job of acting. It's just a matter of whether I'll be allowed to do the job of acting that remains to be seen. There are only so many brick walls that I'm willing to beat my head on.

I used to really want to go on the stage and then the last couple of years I've done some presenting at some award shows. I was so nervous I thought I was going to be sick, so I don't think me on stage for any length of time would work too well.
