So I've never in my whole life really been teased about my weight.

I never want to try to be a spokesperson for health and wellness because I most definitely am not the most in shape person in the world.

I'm not in the best shape, but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals, they can do it, too.

We became somewhat household names really quickly, within a matter of - what? - three, four months. So it's hard to get used to, and it's really sometimes hard to understand.

I don't have any concerns about my weight. I've always been healthy. I eat right. I'm just a big dude. I've always been happy with the person I am. So that will never change.

All of them had so much to offer us as far as, you know, knowledge in the music industry, and especially Randy and Paula because, you know, they've been artists.

I want to be around for a long time. I don't want to be a one-hit wonder.

I've toured the world with David Foster and all kinds of different people. It's been a great ride, and I don't think it's about to stop any time soon.

I'm in the process of brainstorming with my marketing team and all that stuff, trying to come up with a concept for a late-night restaurant for people in Birmingham.

I like doing theaters. I like being up close and personal with the fans. It's really cool.
