My job was to entertain. I've always seen myself in the entertainment realm.

The biggest challenge for me is just knowing how to calm down.

My dad worked on ambulances for a while; my mother had a lot of different jobs with the city.

In the G.O.O.D. Music camp, we all come around, and we show ourselves and present ourselves as artists only.

I suppose I've been selfish in the past and put my career first. But priorities change.

In the early part of your career you are always compared with somebody until you can stand on your own two feet.

I was a very ambitious, young actor, grateful and getting out there, working hard. I was single-minded in pursuit of my career. I am also the oldest of seven and had this extreme responsibility for everyone around me. I was a caregiver and not taking care of myself as much as I should have.

Pressure is part and parcel of our career.
