Somehow, by just continually pestering the general public by appearing on television, they accepted me and wanted more.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There were so many people who wanted me for their films.
Switching the public's perception and view of me was, and still is, kind of a challenge to get them to see me outside of a character that I played on TV for so long.
As the universe accepted our show, more people began to accept me.
I wanted people to see me, to change their minds about me.
I don't doll myself up for TV because I want people to accept me for who I am.
Today, there's an expectation that you get to know public people. In the past, it was much more what you did and how you presented yourself.
They were all interested in what I was going to do, because I'd never worked in televsion before.
My first year, people were interested in me because I was new. Then the press started to come.
I wanted people to see that I really am a real person. I'm not just some guy who was on a TV show, some guy engulfed in the Hollywood life. I'm just a normal guy when it comes down to it.
I wanted to step forward and be on TV and for people to see who I really was.
